Arsenal smash their transfer record to sign £72m Pepe


The Gunners have confirmed the capture of the Ivory Coast international from Lille - who has signed a five-year contract

Arsenal have confirmed the signing of Nicolas Pepe in a £72 million ($87m) deal.
The Ivory Coast international becomes the club’s fourth signing of the transfer window and the deal smashes the club’s transfer record, which was previously set by Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s £56m ($68m) move from Borussia Dortmund in 2018.

Pepe has been in England since Tuesday morning when he travelled to Arsenal’s training centre at London Colney to undergo a medical and meet his new team-mates.
