Premier league side Arsenal are on the verge of sealing their first signing of the summer with sources close to the club confirming they have struck a deal with Portugal giants Sporting Lisbon for a striker.

The Portuguese side is proving a valuable asset for English clubs in recent season with Bruno Fernandes the latest revelation of the talent the side produces.

Mikel Arteta and Edu Gaspar could finally have found a replacement for Alexander Lacazette who is yet to pen a new deal and could be sold should he fail to agree to new terms.

It is claimed that Tiago Tomas could be donning the Arsenal jersey next season as a £20m deal has been agreed by the two clubs for the 18 year old striker.

Tiago is now a regular in the Lisbon side with the Sun reporting that Mikel wants to use the young striker like Pep Guardiola is doing with Gabriel Jesus.

A young player who is keen to learn and improve and with hunger to succeed is what Arsenal seem to have settled for to solve their goalscoring problems.
