Arsenal to sign Eupen youngster for £6.8million

According to Sky Sport, Premier League giant Arsenal has agreed on a £6.8million deal with KAS Eupen for Henry Onyekuru.

There have been talks between the two clubs for over a week now.

Although personal terms have not been met yet, there have been reports that the two club are close to landing a deal on the Nigerian striker.

The 19-year-old striker is said to be an avid Arsenal fan and is keen on moving on to the Emirates.

Onyekuru ended his season at the Belgium club as the highest goal scorer in the Jupiler League scoring 25 times.

Onyekuru who is currently in Nigeria on International duty has also attracted interest from other Premier League sides including Everton, Southampton, West Ham and West Brom.  However, it is the Gunners that has activated his £6.8million release clause.
