Club(s): Lorient, Arsenal
Country: France
Signing fee: £7 million
Guendouzi was seen as a gamble signing when the little-known French midfielder joined Arsenal from second-tier Lorient in July 2018. Then-boss Unai Emery tried to buy the young midfielder while at PSG and gave him the chance to shine in the Premier League.
Has become a key component of Arsenal's midfield, even under Mikel Arteta, and his performances earned him a maiden call-up to the France squad in September 2019.
