Very reliable "BBC Sport" journalist David Ornstein, who regularly reports on transfer rumors at London's Arsenal, shared news about two new club newcomers. According to him, medical check-ups for Lucas Torreira and Matteo Guendouzi should already have been completed, who will soon strengthen the midfield of the Gunners. There have been no doubts about the transfer of the Genoa Sampdoria talent recently, but the 19-year-old Frenchman from Lorient has recently come under media scrutiny. It is reported that the representative of the Ligue 2 team is being bought for the future, when Torreira should become an important Arsenal player next season. The 22-year-old Uruguayan played well in the World Cup, from which his national team had to withdraw only after losing to France in the quarterfinals.
