Although it is being widely reported that Arsenal will receive £8m for the German goalkeeper, that’s not entirely true.
They will receive £3m upfront. They will then receive an additional £1m depending on the number of Leno’s Premier League performances in his first season.
Should Fulham avoid relegation, Arsenal will then pocket another £2m and if they avoid relegation the following season, another £2m will be owed.
In short, it’s an amazing deal for Fulham and it’s no wonder they are delighted.
“It feels amazing to finally be here. I can’t wait to join the team, to train and play with the team,” Leno said.
“I’m relieved that everything is done. I’m just happy to be here. It took a little bit of time but in the end we made it, and that’s the most important thing.”

“He has played at the highest level, and he’ll bring this experience and his leadership to our team. He’ll be a great addition to Marco’s squad, who are all excited for the season ahead! Come on Fulham!”
Leno made 125 appearances for Arsenal, 71 of those under Mikel Arteta.
He kept 37 cleansheets, 25 of which came under the Spaniard.
