Arsenal have taken a major step towards landing Portuguese star Rafael Leão, reaching an agreement on personal terms after discussions in the last few hours. The 25-year-old winger is reportedly keen on making the switch to North London, with the Gunners now in direct contact with AC Milan to advance negotiations.

While a full agreement between the clubs is yet to be struck, Leão’s readiness to don the red and white of Arsenal could see this blockbuster move materialise if talks progress smoothly.
