Southampton are edging closer to completing a deal to sign Ainsley Maitland-Niles from Arsenal on a season-long loan.
Mirror Sport revealed earlier this week that the Saints were keen on the Gunners star, who has been made available either on a permanent or loan deal after falling down the pecking order under Mikel Arteta.
Now Fabrizio Romano claims that talks are ongoing with the player and a medical will be conducted soon to get the move to St Mary's completed.
