Arsenal have just three days left to complete any incoming transfers ahead of the new season. The transfer window for Premier League and Championship clubs closes at 5pm on Thursday, meaning that the mad scramble to complete deals before the deadline is starting to take shape.
One player who the Gunners have been chasing all summer is Celtic star Kieran Tierney, for whom Arsenal have had at least two bids rejected. There has been reports that a deal is edging closer to completion, with the clubs re-entering talks over the past week.
Now there is another indication that an agreement may not be too far away, according to the Sun Celtic are closing in on a replacement for Tierney in the form of Brentford full-back Rico Henry.
It is said that the Bees value the defender at a fee of around £7m, and have enquired about a replacement themselves by showing an interest in Derby County's Max Lowe.
Tierney is currently on the sidelines due to injury, he is on the way to making a comeback, but Celtic boss Neil Lennon has claimed that the speculation over his future is not helping his recovery.
