Arsenal Signs Greek Prolific Defender

Less than a month after the end of the league season in England, Arsenal have made their first signing of the summer transfer window.

According to reports, the Gunners have agreed a deal to sign Greek youngster, Elias Chatzitheodoridis after he impressed coaching staff during a recent trial spell.
It was gathered that the 17-year-old player was training part-time at Arsenal’s academy in Greece when his huge talent became apparent.
He was quickly sent to north London for a trial and, after playing against various big-name youth teams including Real Madrid, Arsenal have snapped him up.
Reports suggest that the youngster has now signed a two-year contract with the club and will begin his career playing for Arsenal’s youth ranks next season.

He is expected to continue his development in the famed academy that produced Jack Wilshere as well as putting the finishing touches on Theo Walcott, Cesc Fabregas and Aaron Ramsey.
Despite Elias' arrival Arsenal fans will still be hoping that coach Arsene Wenger is ready to dip into the transfer market for senior players.
The veteran coach recently assured the Gunners' loyal supporters that big changes would be coming over the summer and the club continues to be linked with a host of big name targets incluing Sami Khedira,  Karim Benzema and Loic Remy.
Arsenal finished fourth on the EPL log last season and will have to play qualifiers to qualify for the group stage of the UEFA Champions League next season.
