Dortmund agree loan move for Arsenal's Nwaneri

Borussia Dortmund have reached an agreement with Arsenal to sign forward Ethan Nwaneri on a season-long loan. The 19-year-old will join the German club after Arsenal suffered a setback with the injury to new signing Giannis Konstantelias during their 2-0 victory against Hamburg. Nwaneri, who Dortmund previously attempted to sign last summer, is now set to undergo a medical and complete the move before the Bundesliga transfer deadline at 19:00 BST.

According to BBC Sport, Arsenal prioritized loan offers for Nwaneri, who is unwilling to be sold. The Arsenal academy product has attracted interest from various Premier League and European clubs throughout this summer's transfer window. With manager Mikel Arteta having a surplus of attacking talent at his disposal, Nwaneri may have faced limited opportunities at Arsenal this season, and the teenager could benefit from more playing time at his new club in Germany.
