Arsenal look set to miss out on signing Aaron Hickey this summer after Brentford have agreed a £14million deal for the talented Scottish defender.
Bologna's new sports director Giovanni Sartori has confirmed that Hickey will be sold imminently, with Brentford reportedly sealing a £14million move. Arsenal have been linked with the 22-year-old for a number of months but look set to miss out as they pursue a deal for Ajax's Lisandro Martinez.
The Gunners are battling Manchester United for the signature of Martinez with the Eredivisie champions asking for a fee in the region of £43million to allow the Argentina international to leave. Arsenal have also been linked with a move for Benfica's Alejandro Grimaldo, with Nuno Tavares' future in doubt after reports linked him with a potential loan move away from the Emirates next season.
