Lucas Perez is set to rejoin former club Deportivo La Coruna on loan with a view to a permanent move.

The Gunners are keen to offload the £17m striker who has been a major flop after struggling to hold down a place since signing a year ago.

There has been other interest but Perez wants Deportivo, they know Arsenal want to shift him and are leaving it late to get the best deal possible.

That is likely to happen after some brinkmanship but Arsenal are likely to be left with some big earners who may end up not even being in the 25 man Premier League squad.

His Arsenal team mate Joel Campbell is set to go to Real Betis on loan.

The Costa Rican international had voiced his unhappiness at the prospect of another loan move, but now appears set to switch back to Spain.
