Arsenal have agreed a £6.2 million fee for Brazil international left back Andre Santos, who is set to join the Premier League club from Turkish side Fenerbahce according to The Telegraph.
Arsene Wenger is keen to add new faces to his squad following the 8-2 humiliation by Manchester United on Sunday, and the 28-year-old looks set to move to the Emirates.
The signing would go some way to plugging the gap left by Gael Clichy, who moved to Manchester City earlier in the summer.
Santos has played 22 times for his country and helped the Istanbul based club to the Turkish Super Lig title in 2010-11.
Meanwhile, the Gunners are widely believed to be on the verge of signing South Korean striker Park Chu-Young, with a £10 million transfer ready to be announced on Tuesday.
The 26-year-old has scored 25 goals for Monaco in two and a half seasons in France, but is thought to want a move away from the Stade Louis II following their relegation to the second tier.
One player leaving Arsenal is Armand Traore, who has moved to QPR on loan after a torrid afternoon at Old Trafford on Sunday.
