Well, the Arsenal transfer news is heating up.
The Gunners look set to capture their first January signing soon.
According to BBC Sport on Thursday, Arsenal have agreed a £21 million deal with Brighton to sign Leandro Trossard.
As a winger, the Belgium international will be signed as an alternative to Mykhailo Mudryk, who sensationally snubbed the North Londoners in favour of Chelsea this past weekend.
News first broke about Trossard to Arsenal yesterday afternoon.
And it looks like it could be completed imminently, as Charles Watts – who exclusively covers the club for Goal – reveals on Twitter that he’s already at London Colney.
Mikel Arteta’s side are home to Manchester United on Sunday.
Arsenal could be only two points clear of Manchester City at that stage, having had an eight-point cushion as recently as yesterday afternoon.
But getting Trossard done and dusted before the 12pm deadline day will give the Emirates Stadium outfit a feel-good factor ahead of hosting the Red Devils.
And clearly Arsenal are working on an accelerated timeline here, by virtue of Watts’s claim that the player is already on site at the club’s training ground ahead of his medical.
