Does Arsenal need Christos Tzoris?
Tzoris is probably not the name most Arsenal fans expected to be associated with this summer, but he has impressed in the Belgian league and looks like he could at least be a good international player.
That appears to be the role Arsenal have in mind for him, with Ornstein’s report in The Athletic noting that signing Tzoris would not affect other potential signings such as Morgan Rodgers.
In the season just ended, Mikel Arteta rotated between Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli on the left, so if both players leave, it might make sense to sign a big name like Rodgers as first choice, and then sign a player like Tzoris as a rotation option.
