The agent of Lille centre-back Gabriel Magalhaes has all but confirmed that his client is on the verge of completing a move to Arsenal.
The 22-year-old underwent a medical at Arsenal's training ground yesterday and confirmation of the £27m deal is expected to arrive soon.
Gabriel was also wanted by Manchester United and Napoli, but his agent Guilherme Miranda has reportedly confirmed that he turned down more lucrative bids to join Arsenal instead.
Guilherme Miranda (agent of Gabriel Magalhaes) tells me:

"Arsenal was nowhere near the best proposal [money wise]. Gabriel chose them over more lucrative offers because Edu convinced us of the project. It's 100% because of Edu Gaspar and Arteta."
Gabriel is expected to put pen to paper on a five-year deal worth £80,000 per week at the Emirates Stadium.

Ajax midfielder Donny van de Beek is reportedly holding out for a move to the Premier League this summer.
The Netherlands international has been given permission to leave the Dutch giants should the right offer be made.
Van de Beek is believed to have been close to joining Real Madrid before the coronavirus pandemic, while Barcelona have also showed an interest.
However, Sky Sports News claims that the 23-year-old is awaiting offers from English clubs, with Manchester United likely to be his preferred destination.
Ajax are keen to sort the future of Van de Beek, who is under contract for another two years, before the new Eredivisie season begins on September 13.
