Report: Arsenal agree midfielder exit as Everton close in on deal

Christian Norgaard, the 32-year-old Arsenal midfielder, is reportedly set to leave the club as Everton closes in on a deal. According to reports, the experienced player is expected to join Everton for around £7 million. However, the transfer is still pending formal completion, and a medical examination is scheduled for the following week.

Norgaard's arrival at Arsenal last summer marked a significant addition to Mikel Arteta's squad, providing the much-needed depth and experience in midfield. However, it seems his short stay at the club may be coming to an end after just one season if this latest report is finalized. Moreover, Norgaard has recently announced his retirement from international football, making this potential move to Everton more likely to be his final club move.

The Arsenal midfielder's departure would be another shift in the club's midfield strategy this summer. Meanwhile, the Gunners continue to assess their midfield options, with Bruno Guimaraes and Vinicius Junior's potential transfer to Arsenal also under consideration. The outcome of this transfer window remains uncertain, but one thing is certain: Norgaard's potential move to Merseyside could be imminent.
