EPL Transfer News: Tomiyasu, Kudus, Newcastle and More

The summer transfer window is in full swing, with Premier League clubs reshaping their squads ahead of the 2024–25 campaign.

Arsenal Part Ways with Takehiro Tomiyasu

Arsenal have officially terminated the contract of Japanese defender Takehiro Tomiyasu. The 26-year-old had only managed six minutes of action last season due to persistent knee injuries, including surgery in February. His recovery is expected to keep him sidelined until at least December, further complicating the start of his 2024–25 season.

Despite having a contract that was due to expire in 2026, Arsenal opted to release Tomiyasu after failing to secure a buyer due to his injury status. In a statement, the club expressed their gratitude: “Everyone at Arsenal Football Club would like to thank Tomi for his contribution to the club and we wish him and his family all the best for the future.”
