Norgaard will join Arsenal as a direct replacement for fellow midfield veteran Jorginho, who left last month for Flamengo.
The Denmark international is a personal transfer request from Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta, who is eager to add experience to the dressing room, with Thomas Partey also departing.
Norgaard leaves Brentford with their best wishes, with new manager Keith Andrews stating last week the midfielder deserves this late career move to a bigger club.
