Edu proves his worth to Stan Kroenke and Arsenal as Manchester United confirm £48.8m transfer

Arsenal have done some excellent business so far this summer with Edu proving to be a shrewd operator time and again. The Gunners have brought four new faces to the Emirates Stadium already, with more likely to follow before the transfer window closes at the end of August.

The Gunners spent big money on bringing Gabriel Jesus to the club from Manchester City, signing the Brazilian forward for a fee in the region of £45million, around £10million less than the original price City appeared to want. And Arsenal could save money on another City player too.

Oleksandr Zinchenko has been linked with a move to north London, with a £30million fee mooted. Again, that is less than was first suggested for City to sell, showing technical director Edu is firmly working his magic.
