TRANSFER REPORT: Arsenal 'agree deal' to sign Schalke defender Sead Kolasinac on free transfer

Arsenal have agreed a deal to sign Schalke defender Sead Kolasinac on a free transfer, according to reports.

Kolasinac is said to have already signed a deal with the Gunners, and will join the north London club in July.

Arsenal have reportedly beaten Everton to land the 23-year-old left-back, and the Toffees will be frustrated they have been gazumped by the Gunners again.

Kolasinac, whose contract at Schalke is due to expire in June, was reportedly in advanced talks over a move to Goodison Park.

But Arsenal swooped in at the last moment, offering higher wages to the highly-rated Bosnia and Herzegovina international, and quickly snapped him up.
