Arsenal on verge of announcing latest signing Mathieu Debuchy
ARSENAL are set to announce the signing of Newcastle defender Mathieu Debuchy tomorrow.
The Gunners have moved for the France international after Bacary Sagna left to join Manchester City on a free transfer, and the London side are expected to splash out around £10million for Debuchy's services after the Toon moved for Feyenoord's Daryl Janmaat.
Earlier reports suggested that the former Lille man was set to become an Arsenal player this week, and it now seems he will be unveiled as an Emirates man tomorrow.
Debuchy will become Arsenal's second signing of the summer following Alexis Sanchez's mega-money move from Barcelona, and the Frenchman could swiftly be followed by fellow right-back Javier Manquillo.

That could mean an exit for Carl Jenkinson, who looks to have slipped out of Arsenal's plans for next season.
Also high on Arsene Wenger's wish list is Real Madrid midfielder Sami Khedira, who is reportedly the subject of a £20million bid by the Gunners.
However, Arsenal face stiff competition for his signature after Jose Mourinho and Chelsea joined the race, and Wenger could instead look to snap up Southampton's Morgan Schneiderlin or Bayer Leverkusen's Lars Bender.
