From what we can tell, Arsenal are poised to complete the signings of Lucas Perez and Shkodran Mustafi.
In case you missed it, the striker from Deportivo (Perez) and Valencia centre-back (Mustafi) both appear to have had their medicals at Arsenal with their deals reportedly set to be announced in the next few days.
Perez is said to be signing for around £17.1m and Mustafi £35m.
While Perez is apparently in London having had his medical, Mustafi’s is also reported to be done/about the be done, depending on what you read, and the defender was left out of Valencia’s squad for Saturday.

Valencia’s manager appears to have had a change of heart, after insisting that Mustafi wouldn’t be going anywhere this summer.

It looks as if both deals are set to be wrapped up very soon and we’ll be getting two decent new signings.
