Arsenal 'to sign Miguel Almiron in January'

Arsenal have allegedly moved close to completing the signing of Atlanta United playmaker Miguel Almiron.

The Gunners have been frequently linked with the Paraguay international, who has contributed 12 goals and 13 assists in 32 MLS appearances this season.

Atlanta's campaign is still taking place, but president Darren Eales has revealed that the 24-year-old has already secured a transfer to an English club.

Eales told FOX Deportes USA: "Almiron's future is already decided and will go to England in the European winter market."

Almiron could potentially be brought in as a replacement for Aaron Ramsey, who is out of contract at the end of the summer.
