Barcelona starlet Toni Sanabria is set to sign a five-year deal with Arsenal after telling the Spanish giants he wants to leave.
Sanabria, 17, is poised to follow a growing line of players including Cesc Fabregas, Fran Merida, Hector Bellerin and Jon Toral to move from Catalonia to north London.
The Paraguayan forward had attracted interested from Roma but Arsenal ready to blow the Italian club out of the water with a more lucrative contract.
His agent Raul Verdu said: ‘Our contacts with Arsenal are advanced and I expect a solution in the next week.’ Arsenal are due to meet with Barcelona and Sanabria next week to finalise a deal and also gain clearance from both federations.
The Gunners are likely to only have to pay compensation of around £300,000 for Sanabria.
