Roma 'set to agree £15.5m summer signing of Arsenal's Granit Xhaka with the Swiss midfielder set to pen a four-year deal at the Italian capital' and link up with huge admirer Jose Mourinho

Jose Mourinho's Roma are close to an agreement with Arsenal for the £15.5million signing of midfielder Granit Xhaka, according to reports in Italy.

Portuguese manager Mourinho is planning his first transfer window with the Serie A side after becoming the Giallorossi boss at the start of May.

Meanwhile, the Gunners are set to embark on an exodus of players after failing to qualify for European football for the first time in 25 years last season, with Xhaka reportedly set to be on the way out with Hector Bellerin and Willian.
