Arsenal have agreed a deal with Chelsea to sign Kepa Arrizabalaga and are in the process of booking a medical for another new signing.
The Gunners have endured a subdued start to the summer transfer window but are now starting to strengthen Mikel Arteta’s squad.
Arsenal have been working on a deal for Martin Zubimendi for months and are set to unveil the Spanish midfielder as a new signing next week.
Real Madrid considered hijacking Arsenal’s £55m deal but Zubimendi, the best player at Real Sociedad, is heading to the Emirates Stadium.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano says Arsenal have also agreed a deal to sign fellow Spain international Kepa from London rivals Chelsea.
