Arsenal have agreed a £14m deal with Chelsea to sign goalkeeper Petr Cech, according to reports.
The Czech is strongly expected to leave Stamford Bridge this summer after 11 years of service, having fallen behind Thibaut Courtois in the pecking order last term.
The Gunners were thought to be leading the way for the 33-year-old's signature and, according to the Daily Star, both Premier League rivals have agreed figures.
Earlier this week it was reported that Paris Saint-Germain had planned on hijacking Arsenal's move for Cech - a switch that Blues boss Jose Mourinho would prefer.
However, owner Roman Abramovich has signed off on Cech's move across London.
The report goes on to state that the Blues have earmarked Queens Park Rangers stopper Rob Green as his replacement, following Rangers' relegation into the Championship.
