Everton Closing in on a Move for Christian Norgaard
The Denmark international has made 20 Arsenal appearances and could join Everton for about £7 million, according to reports.
- Everton are in advanced talks to sign Arsenal midfielder Christian Norgaard for around £7m, with the 32-year-old expected to undergo a medical next week before completing his move to Merseyside.
- Arsenal are offloading Norgaard to accommodate the arrival of Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle United. The Danish international played just over 1,000 minutes last season and started one Premier League game as the Gunners secured the title.
- Replacing Idrissa Gueye, who left last week, the Toffees sought a new midfield option. Norgaard was captain at Brentford, where he started 120 Premier League games over four seasons with the London club.
- Joining an Everton midfield recently bolstered by signings Hayden Hackney and Merlin Rohl, Norgaard provides depth. Manager David Moyes views the experienced 32-year-old as essential for defensive protection and control in the middle.
- The sale bolsters manager Mikel Arteta's transfer budget following earlier departures like Leandro Trossard. Arsenal remain active in the market, revamping their squad after securing their first Premier League title in 22 years.
