Christos Tzolis joins Arsenal in €40 million transfer

Greek forward Christos Tzolis has made a significant career move to Arsenal in the Premier League following a €40 million transfer from Club Brugge. The 24-year-old has already made an impact in London, scoring in a friendly against Girona and providing an assist during Arsenal's Community Shield victory.

Former PAOK coach Abel Ferreira praised Tzolis's competitive mentality and work ethic, noting that his success at Arsenal was not a surprise given his development in Greece. Ferreira and former collaborator Carlos Martins highlighted how the player's talent was evident early on, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic when he was able to train systematically with the PAOK first team after standing out in the U19 squad.
