Fulham have reached an agreement with Arsenal to sign midfielder Emile Smith Rowe for an initial £27m, with the potential for an additional £7m in add-ons.
Smith Rowe is a record signing for Fulham, and sources indicate the add-ons are contingent on the Cottagers’ success in cup competitions and European matches.
The 23-year-old has been excluded from Arsenal’s last two pre-season matches as the deal was being finalized.
An academy graduate and fan favorite, Smith Rowe has fallen down the pecking order at Arsenal, behind Gabriel Martinelli, Leandro Trossard, and Bukayo Saka.
The midfielder has earned three caps for England, the most recent in 2022.
Meanwhile, Arsenal have signed Italian defender Riccardo Calafiori from Bologna for a fee of up to £42m.
