Former Barcelona sports chief Raul Sanllehi is on his way to Arsenal - and already overseeing the sale of Mesut Ozil.
That's according to Sport, which is reporting Sanllehi, who has agreed to move to Arsenal, has "closed" the deal for the German playmaker.
However, he has yet to get the approval of his fellow board members, with some unsure he is the right fit for the club.
Barcelona are desperate to bring in a top quality attacking midfielder in January, having missed out on Philippe Coutinho.
Sanllehi has been in London to negotiate with Ozil's agent Erkut Sogut, as well as his agent.
However, sporting director Pep Segura, who ultimately has the final say, is not convinced.
