Arsenal close to finalizing Andrea Berta's appointment as sporting director

London Arsenal are on the final stretch of appointing a new sporting director following Edu Gaspar's departure from the club.

Details. According to renowned insider Fabrizio Romano, Arsenal is close to finalizing the appointment of Andrea Berta as the new director, who will replace Edu.

The parties need to settle formal details and sign documents, but Berta still prioritizes the London club. More about the situation will be revealed next week.

The 53-year-old Berta left Atletico Madrid at the beginning of January, where the Italian had worked for 12 years in a similar position, and has been without a job since then.

Reminder. The Gunners are ready to offer William Saliba a significant salary increase, making him one of the highest-paid players on the team.
