Arsenal are set to seal the move of Basel star player Mohamed Elneny, according to reports from Mirror.
The reports believe that the Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is keen to complete Elneny move once the transfer window opens on Saturday.
Mirror reported that the fee has been agreed between both the sides for the Egyptian star and it is said to be in the region of £5million.
Personal term has also been agreed, it is likely to be a five year contract with wage around £60,000-a-week.
Elneny who has been exceptional for Basel for the past few seasons underwent a medical earlier this week but is yet to be given the results. However, he is set to receive a work permit in the coming days.
The 23-year-old has played 91 league games for Basel since his move from El Mokawloon in 2013.
Manager Arsene Wenger replied when asked about his move that there is nothing to be announced since nothing has been concluded yet.
The Frenchman has eyed several players for the winter transfer window but is yet to confirm his interest.
The North London side have been struggling with injury problems and are planning to bolster their squad as they eye to lift Premier League title this season.
