Scottish and Bologna full back Aaron Hickey is set to sign for Arsenal, but what’s the information inside the move?
Arsenal have been monitoring the 19 year old since 2021, with Mikel Arteta being a massive fan, interest was always going to come.
On the 10th of May, Arsenal travelled to Bologna, the goal going there was to agree a fee with the Italian side. On the 16th of May, an agreement was in place, both clubs agreed on a £21 million deal. Before this was done, personal terms were already completed with the player.
Napoli were also interested, but the 19 year old preferred a move to England and the club didn’t want to sell him to a fellow Italian club.
Aaron Hickey now looks like he’s taken the same path as Takehiro Tomiyasu, who signed from Bologna in the summer of 2021.
All that’s left now, is Arsenal to submit their offer, and medicals.
