Arsenal striker Lucas Perez on brink of signing for Deportivo La Coruna

Arsenal striker Lucas Perez is on the brink of signing for Deportivo La Coruna.

The Mirror says unhappy Perez will join the Spanish club on loan with a fixed agreement of £10 million next summer.

Deportivo will also pay a hefty loan fee as Arsenal's clear out continues with Gabriel set to go to Valencia for £10m.

Perez turned down Newcastle and Arsenal rebuffed a straight loan offer from Deportivo for the player they sold for £17m last summer.

The 28-year-old made just two Premier League starts for the Gunners, featuring a further nine times off the bench, scoring once.
