Lucas Torreira will be a decent signing for Arsenal says expert
The Sampdoria star is currently at the World Cup with Uruguay, who topped their group with a comfortable 3-0 win over Russia on Monday.
Torreira's move has been in the pipeline for a matter of weeks after the midfielder's impressive performances in Serie A.
But the Gunners have also been linked with Celta Vigo man Stanislav Lobotka in recent times.
However, his agent Branislav Jasurek rubbished those reports, while simultaneously confirming that Torreira will be an Arsenal player next term.

"Arsenal have bought Torreira to play six, so I do not think it's going to happen," he told La Voz de Galicia.
Sampdoria president Massimo Ferrero also recently admitted that Torreira would be heading to north London this summer.
"Sampdoria do not sell unless there are excellent offers," he said.
"We do not look for buyers. We have natural talents whose values increase exponentially.
"Torreira has left for €30million. I bought him from Pescara when no one believed.
"We bet and we won, paying just €30million. The money that comes in is used to keep the club going."
