Eberechi Eze to Arsenal deal sealed

Eberechi Eze grew up supporting the Gunners and is now poised to move to the Emirates after Mikel Arteta's side hijacked Tottenham's move for him
Mikel Arteta will be braced for a hundred questions about Arsenal's swoop for Eze. Thomas Frank will field his fair share of Eze queries this afternoon at Hotspur Way.
Ex-Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger decided to go ahead with the signing of Kim Kallstrom despite his medical revealing a broken bone in his back, while it appears there were no concerns for Eberechi Eze
Eze has undergone a medical with Arsenal and an official announcement of a £67.5million deal is expected imminently. Meanwhile, Arsenal fan ‘North Bansky’ celebrated the deal by stencilling an image of Eze on a tunnel outside the Emirates Stadium. The mural showed Eze in an Arsenal shirt doing his trademark celebration.
Arsenal could instruct left-back Riccardo Calafiori to overlap at pace in order to allow Eze to drift infield, though the defender has frequently suffered injuries, and backup left-back Myles Lewis-Skelly is not as suited as operating on the flanks as the Italian.
