Nicolas Pepe was expected in London today for his Arsenal medical ahead of a five-year, £72m move from Lille.

Arsenal are paying just £20m upfront with the rest payable over five years and Nicolas Pepe is almost – almost – an Arsenal player.

The images, which have been taken by The S*n show that even Pepe couldn’t wait to get his hands on the new Adidas Arsenal shirt.

He was pictured at London Colney and is believed to have been snapped after completing his medical.
