ARSENAL LANDS £42M FISH!

Arsenal have agreed a £42.4m (50m euros) deal with Real Madrid to sign midfielder Mesut Ozil, which would break their club record by £27.4m.

The 24-year-old has agreed personal terms but must have a medical before Arsenal can confirm his signing.

Ozil is on international duty and the medical will take place in Germany.

The Gunners are also in talks with Chelsea to sign 28-year-old striker Demba Ba on loan and want Palermo goalkeeper Emiliano Viviano, 27.
