Arsenal look set to complete the signing of Ben White.

Well, Arsenal fans have been hearing that virtually all summer, but there’s been a pretty concrete update on that matter.

You can’t sign anybody without them first completing a medical.

And according to The Daily Mail, White will have his medical with the Gunners this weekend ahead of a proposed £50 million move from Brighton & Hove Albion, with an announcement ‘imminent’.

Here’s how some fans of the North London club are reacting:

Need attackers

When this goes through, White will be Arsenal’s third senior summer signing of the window.

Nuno Tavares and Albert Sambi Lokonga have already joined the Emirates Stadium club, but all three are defence-minded players.

What Arsenal need now is some goalscorers, by virtue of the fact that scoring goals was their biggest issue last season.

Arsenal fans will be excited by White, but much more so when a new striker and perhaps a number 10 are recruited.
