Arsenal are close to completing a deal for Monreal
The Malaga left-back has emerged as a serious transfer target, as Arsene Wenger needs cover for Kieran Gibbs, who has been ruled out for three weeks after sustaining a thigh injury during the 2-2 draw against Liverpool last night at the Emirates.
Andre Santos is their only recognised left-back, but he has been unconvincing this season.
It is reported that an £8.3m fee has been agreed
Monreal has been on the Gunners' radar for some time now, and it is reported that an £8.3m fee has been agreed.
He looks set to link up with his old team-mate Santi Cazorla, who signed in the summer transfer window for the gunners for £15m.
