Arsenal consider move for Greek forward Tzolis
Arsenal have been offered Club Brugge forward Christos Tzolis and are considering accelerating a move for the Greece international.
Christos Tzolis has scored nine goals in 33 appearance for Greece
Arsenal have been offered Club Brugge forward Christos Tzolis and are considering accelerating a move for the Greece international.
Sources have indicated that sporting director Andrea Berta is actively working on the potential deal.
Arsenal's recruitment expert Maurizio Micheli flew to Sweden last week to run the rule over Tzolis, 24.
Sources are indicating that Arsenal's interest is concrete, with manager Mikel Arteta believed to be on board with the signing.
Tzolis could be available for around £35m.
Crystal Palace tried to sign Tzolis last summer but failed in their pursuit.
Arsenal have made a new attacker a top priority this summer and also have a genuine interest in Aston Villa forward Morgan Rogers.
Tzolis, who started his career at PAOK, scored three goals in 30 appearances for Norwich between 2021-2024.
He enjoyed a more prolific spell in the second tier of German football with Fortuna Dusseldorf, scoring 22 goals in 30 league matches before switching to Club Brugge.
He has found the back of the net 33 times over two campaigns for the Belgian side, who won their 20th league title last term.
