Basel agree to sale Mohamed Elneny to Arsenal
Arsenal have agreed a fee to sign FC Basel�s defensive midfielder Mohamed Elneny, according to reports.

And according to Swiss outlet Aargauer Zeitung, Arsenal have�found cover in the form of Elneny after agreeing a fee thought to be in the tens of millions with Basel.
A full Egyptian international, Elneny has won three league titles during his time in Switzerland, and has been a prominent figure in Basel�s Europa League campaign this season.
