Arsenal agree terms for Toulouse fullback Aurier

Arsenal have struck personal terms with Toulouse for fullback Serge Aurier.

L'Equipe says the Gunners have agreed an £8m deal with Ligue 1 side Toulouse to secure Aurier's services.

Arsenal have offered Aurier a five-year-deal which would see the Ivory Coast international earn £60,000 a week.

The Ivorian has been heavily linked with a move to the Emirates this summer as and is seen by many to be the direct replacement for Bacary Sagna who left the Emirates last week to to join Premier League champions Manchester City.

Aurier, 21, is a versatile player who can play at right or left-back as well as a holding role in midfield.
