PSG book Joao Neves medical

Arsenal close to signing Mikel Merino
⭕Arsenal are thought to be closing in on the signing of Real Sociedad midfielder Mikel Merino after weeks of speculation.
ꦆThe Euro 2024 winner is set to cost The Gunners in excess of £25m, which for a player of his calibre, is great value.
🎉Merino has just a year left on his deal, so Sociedad had to accept that he would depart for much less than his market value.
🧜After the deal is complete, sporting director Edu Gaspar could move for a forward, though, it seems unlikely it’ll be Nico Williams – who seems to be staying put at Athletic Bilbao.
