Arsenal set to sign a talented Spanish young player eyed by Barcelona, dealing a blow to the Blaugranas

London, England – Arsenal is on the brink of securing the transfer of Mikel Merino, a player long pursued by FC Barcelona, in a move that could dramatically impact the summer transfer market.

 

The Gunners are poised to finalize the deal with Real Sociedad, having submitted a €30 million offer that is close to being accepted.

 

Spanish journalist Matteo Moretto reports that Merino has already agreed to personal terms with Arsenal, and the transfer is now just hours away from completion.

 

This acquisition marks a significant triumph for Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, who aims to strengthen his midfield options ahead of the new season.

 

For Barcelona, the news compounds their recent transfer frustrations, particularly with the faltering pursuit of Nico Williams.

 

The Catalan club will now have to reconsider their options as Arsenal prepares to unveil their latest signing.

 

The swift maneuver by Arsenal underscores the intense competition and high stakes of the transfer market, with both clubs vying for top talent to bolster their squads for the upcoming season.
