Arsenal have reportedly agreed personal terms with Philippe Coutinho ahead of a proposed move to the Emirates Stadium this summer.
The Brazil international is still on loan at Bayern Munich but is due to return to parent club Barcelona following the German club's participation in the Champions League.
Coutinho is allegedly surplus to requirements at Camp Nou, though, and the speculation surrounding a potential move to Arsenal has gathered pace in recent days.
According to Catalan Sport, the Gunners have now agreed personal terms with the South American, who is set to arrive at the Emirates Stadium on a season-long loan deal.
The 28-year-old has been in good form for Bayern this season, scoring nine times and contributing eight assists in 34 appearances in all competitions.
Meanwhile, Coutinho netted 41 times in 152 Premier League appearances during his time with Liverpool.
Jadon Sancho 'offered number seven shirt by Manchester United'

Manchester United have reportedly informed Jadon Sancho that he will wear the iconic number seven shirt and play in his favoured position should he join from Borussia Dortmund.
The Red Devils are hoping to strike a deal with Dortmund for the England international, who remains their primary transfer target for the summer window.
United and BVB are still some way apart on their valuation of Sancho, however, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men are running out of time to meet the German club's deadline of August 10.
According to The Athletic, United are hopeful of being given an extension to sign the 20-year-old and already have plans in place as to how to best utilise his talents.
Sancho has been told that he will be used on the right of a front three, it is claimed, and he will take on the number seven shirt.
The likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, David Beckham, Eric Cantona and Bryan Robson have previously worn that shirt, which has been freed up by Alexis Sanchez's switch to Inter Milan.
