Arsenal back Tzolis to make an instant impact
Tzolis arrives in North London after two outstanding seasons in Belgium, where he established himself as one of the Jupiler Pro League's most productive forwards. Arsenal's recruitment team were particularly impressed by his ability to play on the left wing, across the front line and in tight spaces, while also viewing him as a natural finisher capable of becoming a fan favourite.
The Greece international enjoyed an exceptional 2025/26 campaign, making 52 appearances, scoring 22 goals and providing 29 assists in all competitions for Club Brugge. His performances played a major role in the club's domestic success and attracted interest from several top European sides before Arsenal secured the transfer.
Gunners strengthen attack for new season
Arsenal believe Tzolis has the technical quality and tactical flexibility to thrive in the Premier League under Arteta. The former Norwich City winger returns to England with significantly more experience and confidence after rebuilding his career in Belgium.
With the transfer now complete, Tzolis will immediately join Arsenal's pre-season preparations as the club continues to strengthen its squad for the 2026/27 campaign. The €40m signing represents another statement of intent from the Gunners as they look to compete for major domestic and European honours.
