Edu negotiation skills improve as Arsenal transfer chief saves £16m on key transfer

Arsenal sporting director Edu Gaspar has had a busy start to the summer transfer window, to say the least.

The north London outfit recruited Kai Havertz from Chelsea last month in a deal worth £65million. Priority target Declan Rice was then pursued before the Gunners eventually agreed to pay West Ham United a club-record £105million for their captain, with an official announcement expected sometime this week.

Amidst the Rice move, Arsenal's transfer for Ajax defender Jurrien Timber has somewhat gone under the radar. The Dutch international is also yet to officially be unveiled by the club but that is also thought to be coming in the next few days.
