Mika Biereth has joined Sturm Graz from Arsenal in a £4 million deal. Biereth spent the 2023-24 season on loan at the Austrian Bundesliga side, where he scored five goals in 15 league appearances. There is a sell-on clause included in the deal, meaning that Arsenal will receive a percentage of his next transfer fee.

Mika Biereth, a Denmark U21 international, scored nine goals and provided four assists in 22 games for Sturm Graz on loan. They won the Austrian Bundesliga title for the first time since 2011 and also won the Austrian Cup for the second consecutive season. Sturm Graz is eager to sign Biereth on a permanent deal in a bid to defend their title next season. Biereth has one year left on his current contract at Arsenal and Arsenal will hold talks with Sturm Graz this week.
