Arsenal step closer to having Denis Suarez

English Premier League side Arsenal are reported to be close to agreeing on a deal with Spanish La Liga giants Barcelona over a deal for Denis Suarez.

The North London side are keen to land the superstar in this winter transfer window but a deal has been delayed as a result of the inability of both sides to agree in terms.

The fee for the Gunners is not an issue to discuss yet as they wish to land Denis Suarez on a loan deal before having talks for a permanent deal in the summer but the Spanish side are insistent that the player is allowed to leave on a permanent deal or remain.

However, the latest report reveals that Denis Suarez’s agent has come down to plea with the Spanish La Liga giants to let the star player leave the club,.

The agent wishes for more playing time for the star player which is not guaranteed at the Nuo Camp and that could be a major setback to his career.

Meanwhile, the Gunners have lost England international Danny Welbeck and will wish for Denis Suarez as a perfect replacement for him in their bid to secure a Champions League qualification with a top four finish.
