Arsenal midfielder undergoes medical with London club

Arsenal midfielder Emile Smith Rowe has completed his medical with Fulham ahead of his expected transfer.

The 24-year-old has been a fringe player for the Gunners over the past two years and he has now decided to pursue a new challenge.

The Gunners recently agreed a deal worth £34 million for his transfer and Smith Rowe has now finalised his medical with Fulham.

An announcement could be made in the next 24 hours. Arsenal are likely to pursue a replacement after parting ways with their graduate.

Real Sociedad's Mikel Merino is reportedly the prime target for the club and they have agreed personal terms over a four-year contract.

Arsenal are likely to negotiate payment terms with Sociedad in the coming days. Merino is open to joining them over Barcelona and Atletico.

The Gunners could also bolster their attack before the transfer deadline. Instead of landing a striker, the club are eyeing a wide attacker.

Bayern Munich's Leroy Sane has emerged as a potential target.
