Arsenal completed the signing of Captain Brentford Christian Norgaard in an effort to strengthen their middle fields heading for the new season. Both clubs confirmed this step on Thursday, July 10th, and while the fee was disclosed, it was reported that Gunners paid an initial fee of £ 10 million. The Danish International joined the two -year contract with the possibility of another year.
Norgaard becomes the third signature of Arsenal this summer because they added Kepa Arrizabalaga and Martin Zubimendi in their ranks. Zubimendi and Norgaard came to replace Jorginho and Thomas Partey who left the club after their shops.
Artta said that Norgaard has shown leadership and strong character, which is invaluable to their team. Gunners chief said that Norgaard will bring a lot to and off the field in the field.
“He is an international player with a rich Premier League experience. He has shown the skills of leaders and a strong character that will be invaluable to our group,” Arsenal chief Mikel Artta said.
“He is a strong midfielder with excellent tactical consciousness and versatility. He also has a physical presence and intelligence that will give us greater depth and balance. Christian will bring a lot to the group on the playground.”
“Children’s Dream”
Norgaard said that the child’s dream was part of the team that competes in the Champions League, and now he will hear the famous anthem of the competition.
“Now I hear the anthem and I will be part of the Champions League campaign. It’s a childhood dream and something he didn’t think would be possible. So it’s something I am really, really happy,” Norgaard said.
A 31 -year -old man spent six seasons with Brentford and helped them get promoted to the Premier League in 2021 and in the last two seasons the bees captains. Norgaard has made more wiretapping than any other player since his Premier League debut in 2021. Arsenal will start his Premier League campaign against Manchester United August 17th.
