Danny Welbeck is reportedly at Arsenal’s training ground undergoing a medical as he bids to try and tie up a move in preference to Spurs.
The 23-year-old has been at the Gunners’ London Colney base already today with the England squad, but it is now being reported he is undergoing a medical following earlier claims he was at the training complex to try and force through a move ahead of the 11pm transfer deadline.
Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is thought to be keen on a move for the striker, who has fallen even further down the Manchester United pecking order as the Old Trafford club are close to completing the audacious capture of Radamel Falcao.
