Catch up with all the latest Arsenal news, including updates on Christian Norgaard transfer, Zac Shuaib and Ayden Heaven.
Arsenal have completed yet another transfer this summer, taking their total to three, as talks ramp up to double that number for signings.
Elsewhere, the players have returned to pre-season training this week, as they are put through their paces with tests and training drills.
So, with that said, here’s a look at the latest Arsenal news ahead of another busy day of action.
Christian Norgaard reveals Arsenal dream after transfer
Arsenal have confirmed the signing of Christian Norgaard on a two-year deal, with the option of an extra year, from Brentford.
The Gunners paid a fee worth an initial £10 million for the midfielder, making him the third signing of the summer.
Upon completing the move, Norgaard revealed how much it meant for him, along with his dream to play in the Champions League.
“You can get almost emotional because maybe it was a dream that I’ve given a little bit up on coming towards the later stage in my career,” Norgaard told the Arsenal official website.
“I’ve just turned 31 and had signed a new deal with Brentford. Of course, there’s always a little chance that a miracle could happen with Brentford, but it was probably unrealistic to play Champions League with them.
“Now, I get to hear the anthem and be a part of a Champions League campaign. It’s a childhood dream and something I didn’t think would be possible. So it’s something I’m really, really happy about.”

While Arsenal are due compensation, it’s claimed that they will waive that right to allow the move to go through, becoming the latest transfer between the two clubs.

Per Mertesacker changed Ayden Heaven’s position
Arsenal have had plenty of promising stars come through the academy in recent years, with Ayden Heaven among those to have done so.
The defender has since joined Manchester United and is looking to stamp his mark, but things could’ve been very different.
The youngster is now a towering centre-back, but there was a time that Per Mertesacker had to change him from a midfielder to a defender.
