Transfer: Arsenal striker set to leave

Arsenal striker, Chuba Akpom, is set to join Greek side PAOK in the coming days, Goal reports.

The 22-year-old has spent several seasons out on loan, with his most recent spell at Belgian side Sint-Truiden, where he scored six goals in 16 games last season.

It is understood that PAOK has agreed a deal worth around £2million for Akpom.

With the likes of Danny Welbeck and Lucas Perez ahead of Akpom in the pecking order at Arsenal, the forward wasn’t expected to be part of Unai Emery’s plans next season, with his contract having only one year left.

Akpom will travel to Thessaloniki on Monday, where he is set to put the finishing touches to his permanent move.
