Lille midfielder Salomon Kalou is on the verge of signing for Arsenal according to reports in France. It is believed that Arsenal have been locked in talks since Wednesday to complete the deal before the transfer window shuts on Monday night.
Kalou is believed to be happy at Lille but is keen to return back to the English Premier League where he enjoyed so much success at Chelsea. While at Chelsea Kalou won one Premier League, four FA Cups, one League Cup and the UEFA Champions League.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has made it public that he feels he needs to add reinforcements and the signing of Kalou would signal the start of a late surge into the transfer market. It is believed that an offer worth £2.6m offer has been accepted however personal terms have yet to be agreed.
