According to The Athletic
Fulham
Signs Arsenal midfielder for a total of £34 million
Smith Rowe
.. The 24-year-old England midfielder missed most of last season with a hip problem, making just four starts since his comeback and failing to perform when he came on as a substitute, contributing just two assists.
The report suggests that Fulham will pay an initial fee of £27 million for Smith-Rowe, with another £7 million in add-ons. Smith-Rowe is currently in the United States with Arsenal for pre-season preparations.
The transfer of Smith-Rowe is an important reinforcement for Fulham as they look to boost their squad by bringing in the promising midfielder. Although Smith-Rowe's performances were hampered by injuries last season, he is still highly recognized for his ability and talent when fit.
For Arsenal, the deal means that the team will have more money and space to make adjustments and reinforcements in the midfield position. The departure of Smith Rowe will also provide more opportunities for other young players.
Fans will keep a close eye on Smith Rowe's performance at Fulham, hoping that he can rediscover his form in the new environment and show excellent competitive level. At the same time, Arsenal fans also expect the club to make effective reinforcements and adjustments through this transfer capital, so as to fully prepare for the new season.
