Danny Welbeck is believed to be having a medical with Arsenal ahead of a transfer deadline day loan move from Manchester United.
The England international has been tipped to leave Old Trafford this summer, with boss Louis van Gaal deeming him surplus to requirements despite his side’s poor start to the season.
And it appears the Emirates will be the 23-year-old’s next destination, with the Gunners seemingly fending off interest from the likes of Tottenham and Sunderland to complete a deal.
Arsenal fans have been desperate for boss Arsene Wenger to add a striker to his squad before tonight’s cut-off, with demands increasing following injury to Olivier Giroud.
And despite a quiet deadline day so far at the Emirates, it appears Arsenal could yet be adding Welbeck to their ranks, with the Daily Mail reporting a £6m loan fee has been agreed between the two clubs.
