London's "Arsenal" club should complete their first deal as soon as the winter transfer window opens. One of the Premier League leaders will be reinforced by a midfielder from Egypt. Arsene Wenger wants to acquire a midfielder, which is especially necessary due to the injuries suffered by young Frenchman Francis Coquelin. Injuries also affect Santi Cazorla and Jack Wilshere. According to goal.com, quoting a former assistant coach of the Egyptian national team, 23-year-old Mohamed Elneny, who plays for "Basel," has already agreed on personal contract details with Arsenal. The club and the player will sign a four-and-a-half-year contract, with Basel receiving around 5 million euros in the transfer fee. 23-year-old M. Elneny has already played 39 matches for the Egyptian national team, and he scored 4 goals for Basel in 21 matches this season. According to some sources in the English press, this could be the only purchase for Arsenal in the winter transfer window.
