Gunners set to sign Trabelsi

ARSENAL are close to agreeing a deal with Ajax for their outstanding full-back Hatem Trabelsi.

The 27-year-old looked to leave the Amsterdam Arena on a free transfer, and Manchester United, Chelsea and Juventus were ready to pounce.

Newcastle tried to land the Tunisian earlier this summer, but the move faltered when they tried to bypass the player’s agents and go straight to Ajax.
