Arsenal are confident that Monchi will join the club as their new technical director following the Spaniard's departure from AS Roma.
Monchi, 50, had been with the Serie A side in a directorial capacity since 2017. However, this week it was confirmed that the two parties 'mutually agreed to bring an early end to their professional relationship', just the day after Eusebio Di Francesco was sacked as the club's manager.
With the recruitment chief now available, the Daily Mail report that Arsenal are confident of landing Monchi, with the Premier League side offering him a three-year deal in the hope that he can start as soon as possible, having previously been willing to pay his £1m release clause while he was still contracted to Roma.
