Arsenal forward Akpom closes in on PAOK move

Arsenal forward Chuba Akpom will join PAOK in the next few days, according to Goal.

The 22-year-old has been on six loan spells whilst with Arsenal, the latest of which was last season with Sint-Truden where he scored six goals in 16 appearances.

Akpom has been with the Gunners since he was six-years-old.

The Londonder made his debut in 2013 but has since only made 11 more appearances for the first-team.

A number of clubs had been interested in signing Akpom, but PAOK have won the race, agreeing a deal believed to be worth around £2 million.
