Oleksandr Zinchenko has left the Manchester City pre-season camp to join up with Arsenal and complete his transfer to the club football.london understands. The Ukraine international is set to become the Gunners' fifth signing of the summer in a deal thought to be initially worth around £30 million.
The 25-year-old was already in America with the City squad for their preseason tour in Houston, Texas. Mikel Arteta's men arrived in Orlando on Sunday for the second leg of their US tour, making it easier for the deal to be completed there than back in London.
Technical director Edu is flying out to Orlando to join up with the Arsenal squad on Tuesday. It is thought that Zinchenko will either complete his medical on Tuesday or Wednesday, although it is not yet clear whether he will be available for selection to make his debut in Saturday's preseason friendly match against Chelsea.
