In what could be one of the surprises of Arsenal’s summer, Lucas Torreira will join up with the Arsenal squad ahead of the US tour. The Uruguayan is expected to return alongside a number of other senior figures on Monday.
Torreira has spent the last two seasons away from Arsenal on loan with Atletico Madrid and Fiorentina. He excelled in Italy and won three player of the month awards.
However, La Viola decided against activating his purchase clause and instead tried to negotiate a lower fee with both the club and player. An attempt that was shut down by Arsenal and instead Torreira’s future was left hanging in the balance.
