Arsenal have reportedly reached an agreement to sign Bayer Leverkusen centre-back Piero Hincapie.
Negotiations between the two clubs over the 23-year-old have taken place in recent days, and the Ecuador international is now expected to join Mikel Arteta’s side before the transfer window closes on Monday.
David Ornstein exclusively reports that Arsenal have reached a full agreement with Bayer Leverkusen for Hincapie. The deal is understood to be a season-long loan with an option to buy set at around €52m.
Hincapie is scheduled to arrive in London this weekend to undergo his medical, and if all goes according to plan, he will become the Gunners’ eighth summer signing.
