Monday’s Done Deal: Arsenal CONFIRMS two world-class transfer that they are set to finalise before the transfer window closes on friday

Arsenal to land millions in transfer bonus after Mikel Arteta’s fiery clash with star Arsenal have spent more than £200million this summer but are set to recuperate some of that cash before Friday’s transfer deadline through player sales and sell-on clauses Arsenal are set for a major windfall as they tie up deals for Folarin Balogun and Kieran Tierney – and they will also pocket a sell-on clause for Matteo Guendouzi. Balogun is joining Monaco in a £40million deal, which represents a record sale for the Gunners. Tierney is joining Real Sociedad on a season-long loan after the Spanish club pulled off a coup as Newcastle, Celtic and Aston Villa did not follow up with offers. Guendouzi, meanwhile, is close to joining Lazio after the Italians agreed an €18m (£15.45m) transfer fee with Marseille for the France international. Marseille owe Arsenal 15 per cent of any sale due to a sell-on clause, which amounts to around £2.3m. Arsenal have already bagged around £2m from West Ham’s deal to sign Konstantinos Mavropanos from Stuttgart for £20m. The Gunners sold Mavropanos to the Germans a year ago for just £3m, but that deal included a 10 per cent sell-on clause.

Monaco beat off plenty of interest in Balogun including from Chelsea, who like the USA international but would not match Arsenal’s price. Balogun scored 21 Ligue 1 goals during a loan spell with Reims last season and will hope to replicate that form at Monaco.
