Mathieu Debuchy on the verge of completing Arsenal move

The Newcastle United right-back is ready to finalise his move to the Emirates Stadium now the Magpies have found a replacement, reports the London Evening Standard.

Newcastle have tied up a deal to bring in Feyenoord ace Daryl Janmaat, leaving Debuchy free to complete his £10m switch to North London.

The France international has been identified by manager Arsene Wenger as the ideal replacement for fellow countryman Bacary Sagna, who left for Manchester City this summer.
