Christian Norgaard Vows Arsenal Will Be His Last Club Abroad, Eyes Brøndby Return After Contract
The Denmark midfielder outlines a post-contract return to Brøndby following a short-term move that bolsters Arsenal’s midfield depth.
Overview
- Norgaard said his Arsenal deal is for two years with an option for a further season, adding he would be happy to stay for the extra year if circumstances fit.
- He made the comments on October 7 while on international duty, in an interview transcribed by Danish outlet Bold.
- The 31-year-old joined from Brentford in the summer window as an experienced midfield option after departures such as Thomas Partey and Jorginho.
- Reporting describes the transfer as a value signing at around £15 million under sporting director Andrea Berta, with Norgaard providing leadership and Premier League know-how.
- After an early-season injury that kept him out of the first four league matches, he has begun to build minutes but faces competition from fellow summer addition Martin Zubimendi, while separate reports speculate Arsenal could target Sevilla’s Lucien Agoume in future windows.
