Andria Bartishvili completes medical ahead of future Arsenal transfer

Andria Bartishvili has completed his medical examination and signed a contract with Arsenal following interest from several clubs. The teenager, currently playing for Iberia 1999, is ineligible to join his new club until he turns 18 in March 2027. Consequently, the transfer will officially take effect in June 2027. Arsenal officials finalized the agreement after monitoring the Georgia under-21 international, who has recorded two goals and three assists in 24 appearances for his current club. The deal concludes a competitive recruitment process that included reported interest from Liverpool and Juventus. Bartishvili, who primarily operates as an attacking midfielder or left-winger, remains with his current club until the contract begins in 2027.
