Bologna chief Riccardo Bigon is ready to sell Arsenal target Aaron Hickey this summer.

Il Corriere dello Sport says Bigon's job is tied to the Scotland fullback's sale.

If he can convince Arsenal to cough up €20m for Hickey, Bigon expects to be confirmed as sporting director next season.

The Gunners see Hickey as ideal cover for Kieran Trippier at left-back.

The former Hearts prospect has also been linked with a move within Serie A.
