Another left field signing for Arsenal: 20 million for Tomiyasu

The team which has spent most money in European football have dug into their pockets again. 20 million euros on Takehiro Tomiyasu.

The 22 year-old Bologna central defender has reached an agreement with the Gunners to become a new Arsenal footballer. 

He is a footballer who has already made 64 Serie A appearances and performed quite well, but he has yet to show his clase at a big club. 

He has 23 caps for Japan and he arrived in Italy from Belgian side Sint-Truden. He was at Japanese club Avispa Fukuoka before that.

According to Fabrizio Romano, the footballer will pass his medical on Tuesday and then be announced by the North Londoners. In addition, the Italian journalist said that Arsenal could pay up to three million euros more in add ons. 

The signing, despite being promising, does not seem to be what Arsenal need right now: experienced players to turn the situation around until the youngsters mature and get more experience.
