Arsenal will receive €25m fee for Xhaka.

Understand Granit will sign until June 2028, five year deal.

Done. ✔️

It's a bittersweet moment. This time last year I'd have taken that and sprinted off into the sunset

€25m is still a great deal for a 30 year old player but after finally showing his true form last season I feel that he still had a role to play with us, even with the new signings. Family calls first though so have to respect it.

Yeah, plus more game time for him. Feels bad but it's a good fee and a move that suits him very well.
