Arsenal’s new signing, Granit Xhaka (23) may have smashed the earnings record at Arsenal.
Checkpointcharley can reveal that the Albanian-born Swiss international will smile to the bank weekly with 145,000 Euros in his briefcase. And this will happen at least for the next five years, after signing a five years contract that will keep him for a while at Emirate Stadium.
Simple maths show that the player is guaranteed a yearly income of about 7,5million Euros.
Arsenal paid a whooping 45million Euros as transfer fees for the midfielder. It is the highest fee his ex club Borussia Mochengladbach has ever raked in by way of selling a player. The move has therefore made sense for both club and player.
