Arsenal midfielder Jon Toral set for loan to Hull City - sources

Arsenal midfielder Jon Toral is in line to join Hull City on loan, sources close to the Championship club have told ESPN FC.

Hull boss Leonid Slutsky is determined to bolster his squad before the close of the transfer window and he has identified Toral as one of his top targets.

Toral, who joined Arsenal from Barcelona in 2011 as part of a double deal including Hector Bellerin, has struggled to break into Arsene Wenger's plans since his arrival in North London.

The 22-year-old has yet to make a first-team appearance for Arsenal and has spent the last three seasons out on loan at four clubs.
