Arsenal technical director Edu has unlocked the Gunners a healthy £5.9million windfall this summer following the sale of Lucas Torreira. The 26-year-old, who has penned a three-year deal with Galatasaray, has bid farewell to the north Londoners on Twitter announcing his exit.
"I am very happy and excited to be a new Galatasaray player," the midfielder's statement reads. "I am convinced that this is the beginning of a long and successful history together. Thank you for trusting me and I promise to leave everything for these colours. Let's go Gala!"
Torreira was heavily linked with an exit from the Emirates Stadium after falling out of favour under Mikel Arteta. He featured 89 times for the north London side after arriving from Sampdoria four years ago in a deal worth around £25million.
