Both parties, after reaching an agreement in principle, now expect Kai Havertz to finalise the move across London in the coming days.
The German international, after the completion of the deal, is expected to earn £210,000 per week and commit to a five-year contract with Mikel Arteta’s side.
Meanwhile, Declan Rice and Jurrien Timber were also recipients of offers from the Gunners, but they have seen both rejected, they are, however, confident the two deals will get over the line.
Regarding Rice, a fresh £90million proposal was put through but again fell short of West Ham’s valuation, but a third bid is already in the pipeline
A £30million bid for Timber came as a slight surprise on Monday given minimal talk had been surrounding his name prior to the offer but again there is confidence an agreement will be reached with Ajax.
