Arsenal have moved a step forward in their bid to sign exciting Nigerian striker Henry Onyekuru after they offered to pay his Belgian club eight million Euros as transfer fee, while the player will be on £38,000-a-week, according to a SCORENigeria report.
SCORENigeria reported on Monday morning that Arsenal have opened transfer talks with KAS Eupen for the striker.
The 19-year-old forward, who is in Eagles camp in Ajaccio for international friendlies, is now the top target of a rash of Premier League clubs after a super run in the just-ended season in Belgium.
A source close to the enterprising player revealed that Arsenal prepared to fork out eight million Euros to Eupen as transfer fee with the player on an initial salary of £38,000-a-week.
“All things being equal Henry (Onyekuru) will realise his dream and aspiration of playing for his childhood club Arsenal as the London club have offered to pay him £38,000 a week and also ready to pay Eupen eight million Euros.
“He may even get more as talks are still on going with his agency Mercato.”
