Football: Cazorla to have Arsenal medical

Spanish international Santi Cazorla is expected to fly to London this week for a medical with Arsenal, according to Sky Sports. Cazorla is thought to be pressing for his sale to go through as the Qatari owners of the club look to sell the club. A deal worth around €22 million looks set to be agreed between the two clubs. The player’s representatives have already held talks with Arsenal and they are happy with the proposed deal on offer at the Emirates. Malaga paid €19 million to Villarreal for Cazorla, who helped them get into the top four in La Liga last season.
