• Bought From: Deportivo (La Liga)
• Announced: 30th August
• Age: 27
• Position: Centre Forward (Attacking Midfielder)

The position we were crying out for all summer, but not necessarily the name that was on anyone’s lips, as Arsenal landed the striker in the final few days of the window.

Lucas recently confirmed that Arsenal contacted him when the window opened, and after paying his €20m release clause the Spaniard is itching to show us what he can do.

Lucas managed to bag himself 17 goals and 8 assists in La Liga last season, and his 38 successful take-ons compared to Giroud’s 11 shows us how much of a different player we’ve got.
