The transfer agreement consists of a clause which can be activated to make the deal a permanent one should Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger wish to do so.<br />

According to Sky Italia, the North London outfit would acquire the signature of the 27-year-old goalkeeper on a season-long loan deal from Palermo for an undisclosed fee.<br />

The Gunners boss has been put under immense pressure by the fans to bring in big signings this summer, having only signed Yaya Sanogo and Mathieu Flamini on a free transfer.<br />

The signing of Viviano could be a stepping stone to Wenger's intentions of bringing in new faces before the end of the summer transfer window.
