Arsenal expect Piero Hincapie's transfer to be finalised and possibly announced later today, pending no late snags. The club already added Viktor Gyokeres, Eberechi Eze and Martin Zubimendi, plus other squad-depth signings. Jakub Kiwior is set to complete a move to Porto. Sambi Lokonga is expected to join Hamburg. Fabio Vieira, Reiss Nelson and Oleksandr Zinchenko are also potential departures with clubs from the Bundesliga, Fulham, Crystal Palace and West Ham showing interest. Arsenal have worked on these outbound deals throughout the summer. Deadline Day should therefore focus primarily on outgoings rather than further incomings.
Deadline Day at Arsenal is expected to be a fairly busy one, Watts said. Piero Hincapie arrived yesterday and that deal should be wrapped up and announced a bit later on, providing there are no late hiccups of course. And that will mean Jakub Kiwior will complete his move to Porto. But there will be other business being done, centred around outgoings.
You never want to rule things out because we all know anything can happen on deadline day, but I'd be very surprised if there were any other incomings aside from Hincapie. But there should be exits, with Sambi Lokonga expected to complete a move to Hamburg and the likes of Fabio Vieira, Reiss Nelson and Oleksandr Zinchenko potentially also heading out the door.
