Arsenal are on the brink of losing Sam Gallagher as the striker finalises his move to Leeds United, as per a report from Football Insider
The 18-year-old forward is believed to be putting pen to paper on a three-year United contract today, completing a £1.5million transfer from Emirates Stadium to Elland Road.
Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa has been busy improving his squad following the Whites’ return to the Premier League, agreeing a deal to sign Spanish forward Rodrygo from Valencia last night.
However, Gallagher is regarded as one more for the future as Bielsa looks to build a dynasty at the Yorkshire club.
