Arsenal set to land Real Sociedad's Mikel Merino on €30m deal

Mikel Merino will not remain at Real Sociedad. The ‘Txuri-urdin’ club had more than accepted the departure of one of their key players, who is approaching Mikel Arteta's Arsenal. A move that would trigger the arrival of Carlos Soler at the Reale Arena.
Journalist Matteo Moretto has reported an agreement between all parties for the Spaniard's arrival at the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners are ready to pay 30 million euros plus add-ons for the Euro 2024 winner with Spain.
After the signing of Riccardo Calafiori, Arsenal want to bolster their midfield to fight for the Premier League this season. In addition, Mikel Arteta has been a key figure in Mikel Merino's decision to land in England.
It is worth remembering that the midfielder was already in the ranks of Newcastle. A tough summer for Real Sociedad, who have already said goodbye to Robin Le Normand. This time, it is their turn to say goodbye to their mainstay and welcome Carlos Soler with open arms.
