Mikel Merino, a key player for Real Sociedad, has been instrumental in their recent successes. His versatility and ability to control the midfield have made him a sought-after talent. Arsenal’s interest in Merino is not surprising, given his consistent performances in La Liga and his experience on the international stage with Spain.

The agreement, which includes a base fee of €30 million plus potential add-ons that could bring the total to €35 million, is in its final stages. Both clubs are optimistic that the deal will be signed and sealed by the end of the weekend. Merino has already agreed to personal terms with Arsenal, indicating his eagerness to join the Premier League side.

Should the deal go through, Merino will become Arsenal’s fifth signing of the summer. The Gunners have already added David Raya, Riccardo Calafiori, and young goalkeepers Tommy Setford and Lucas Nygaard to their squad. Merino’s addition will undoubtedly strengthen Arsenal’s midfield, providing manager Mikel Arteta with more options and depth for the upcoming season.
