Arsenal defender Auston Trusty is closing in on a £5million move to Sheffield United.
A number of clubs, including Ipswich Town and Swansea City, had been keen on signing the USA defender this summer.
Newly promoted Premier League side Sheffield United are set to win the race for Trusty, though, after holding talks with the player.
The centre-back joined Arsenal in January 2022 from Colorado Rapids and spent last season on loan at Birmingham City.
He excelled at St Andrew’s and joined Arsenal for their summer pre-season tour of the United States.
Trusty is now set to leave Emirates Stadium in search of first-team football.
Winger Nicolas Pepe could follow him out the door as the Ivorian is a target for Besiktas.
The Turkish club are interested in signing the Ivorian, who has one year left on his deal at Arsenal.
Pepe joined the Gunners in 2019 from Lille in what was then a club-record £72m deal, but has failed to deliver.
