Arsenal have been unable to complete a deal for Eberechi Eze by the midday cut-off which means the winger cannot make his debut for the Gunners until next week's clash at Liverpool

The Gunners have outmanoeuvred rivals Tottenham to secure the services of Eze, although no official announcement has been made at the time of writing. Arsenal have snatched Eze right under Spurs' nose, but the England international is not expected to feature at the Emirates on Saturday.

Eberechi Eze is now expected to join Arsenal after the Gunners came back in for him in the 11th hour, despite agreeing a move in principle to join north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur within the last 24 hours.
