"After arriving at London Colney before the end of last season, Berta has led a full-blown overhaul in N5, signing Kepa Arrizabalaga, Martin Zubimendi, Christian Norgaard, Noni Madueke, Cristhian Mosquera, Viktor Gyokeres and Eberechi Eze on permanent deals, before Hincapie followed this weekend. It has been a record window for the Gunners, too, with the club having never spent so much in a single summer."
"While Arteta plays a huge role in identifying the players who join his squad, Berta has had a big influence this summer, too, putting forward the likes of Gyokeres as potential profiles to pursue, according to a report from James McNicholas of The Athletic. The report states that Arsenal are expected to make a major appointment behind the scenes in the coming months, after Berta focused solely on transfer deals over the summer, with the remit of the sporting director supposed to be much wider ordinarily."
Arsenal completed a dramatic summer transfer window, spending £255 million and signing eight players, capped by Piero Hincapie on loan with an obligation to buy. Andrea Berta joined before the end of last season and led a wide overhaul, signing Kepa Arrizabalaga, Martin Zubimendi, Christian Norgaard, Noni Madueke, Cristhian Mosquera, Viktor Gyokeres and Eberechi Eze. Mikel Arteta maintained a strong role in identifying targets while Berta influenced recruitment profiles. The club intends to restructure the backroom with a major appointment focused on recruitment and scouting, having interviewed Matteo Tognozzi previously for a senior scouting role.
