Noni Madueke is set to undergo his Arsenal medical on Monday ahead of a £52m move.
Madueke has agreed to personal terms on a five-year deal in principle. The England international is expected to join the Gunners for an initial £48m plus £4m in add-ons.
Arsenal have been looking to sign a left-sided forward this summer, although Madueke featured 33 times on the right side of Chelsea's attack during the 2024/25 season and on only seven occasions on the left, contributing no goals or assists in that time.
The Gunners, who have also looked at a number of other players in the forward positions, including Real Madrid's Rodrygo, have both Bukayo Saka and Ethan Nwaneri to fill the right-winger spot.
Chelsea signed Madueke from PSV for £29m in January 2023 and he has five years left on his contract. However, the Blues have strengthened significantly in attacking areas this summer.
Liam Delap arrived for £30m from Ipswich and Joao Pedro joined from Brighton in a deal worth up to £60m.
The west London club also added Jamie Gittens from Borussia Dortmund for an initial fee of £48.5m, plus £3.5m in potential add-ons.
