From Turkey: Trabzonspor reach agreement to sign Arsenal midfielder — 25-year-old keen on move

Written by David Schill

Turkish side Trabzonspor have reportedly struck an agreement with Arsenal for Albert Sambi Lokonga.
 

The 25-year-old midfielder is widely expected to leave the Gunners before next Monday's transfer deadline.

Reports in Turkey suggest he is now closing in on a move, with Karadenizde Sonnokta claiming that Trabzonspor have reached an agreement in principle to sign the Belgium international.

The deal is expected to be a loan with an option to buy, while Lokonga himself is understood to be keen on completing the switch before the window closes.
