It has been an extremely busy summer transfer window for Arsenal, with business set to conclude on Monday when the window slams shut at 7pm.
Kepa Arrizabalaga, Cristhian Mosquera, Martin Zubimendi, Christian Norgaard, Noni Madueke, Viktor Gyokeres and Eberechi Eze have all already made the move to Emirates Stadium. On the exits front, Jorginho, Thomas Partey, Kieran Tierney and Takehiro Tomiyasu were released, while Marquinhos and Nuno Tavares left the club permanently.
Karl Hein joined Werder Bremen on loan and the transfer activity is likely to not stop there as Andrea Berta and Mikel Arteta look to seal a number of deals on deadline day. Below, football.london takes a look at the potential incomings and outgoings at Arsenal on Monday...
Piero Hincapie
As it stands, the only incoming expected at Arsenal on deadline day is Piero Hincapie. football.london understands that the Gunners have agreed a deal to sign Hincapie on loan, which includes an option to buy clause worth £45million.
The Ecuador international, who is capable of playing centre-back and left-back, was an unused substitute in Bayer Leverkusen's 3-3 draw with Werder Bremen on Saturday. According to The Athletic, the defender is already in London and is just awaiting permission from Leverkusen to undergo a medical.
Jakub Kiwior
If Arsenal do secure a deal for Hincapie, Polish international Jakub Kiwior is expected to depart. The north Londoners have agreed a deal with Porto for the defender, football.london understands, which would bring an end to the 25-year-old's near three-year stay at Emirates Stadium.
football.london understands Porto have agreed to pay Arsenal a fee which could rise to €27million (£23.4million), with personal terms already agreed. Kiwior, who joined the Gunners from Spezia in January 2023 for £20million, was not included in the matchday squad to face Liverpool on Sunday.
Oleksandr Zinchenko
Oleksandr Zinchenko's time at Arsenal could come to an end before Monday's 7pm deadline. The Ukrainian is yet to make a matchday squad this season and really does need to secure a move as the likes of Myles Lewis-Skelly and Riccardo Calafiori are currently ahead of him in the pecking order.
The Athletic have reported that Zinchenko could be set to make the move to French giants Marseille. The report states the defender's salary "presents a significant issue that will need to be overcome" in any potential deal.

Fabio Vieira
Arsenal will be hoping to try and secure a permanent exit for Fabio Vieira in the coming hours, with the 25-year-old's £34million move from Porto in 2022 just not working out for the attacking midfielder. Arteta does not see the Portuguese in his plans and Berta will do well to secure a fee.
It has been reported that Hamburger SV want to bring Vieira to the Bundesliga in a loan deal, while West Ham are also said to be keen on the Arsenal star. A loan with an option or obligation to buy could be the best option for all parties.
Reiss Nelson
Fulham have reportedly been keen to re-sign Reiss Nelson despite his injury-plagued time at Craven Cottage last season. But talks between Marco Silva's side and Arsenal have been slow and Crystal Palace have emerged as another potential option for the winger.
Palace want to bring in attacking reinforcements following Eze's move to Arsenal last week and Nelson could come in either temporarily or permanently.
Albert Sambi Lokonga
Albert Sambi Lokonga has had underwhelming loan spells at Luton and Sevilla in recent years and really needs to secure a permanent exit away from Emirates Stadium for the good of his career. According to reports, the Belgian midfielder could be joining Hamburger SV, potentially alongside current teammate Vieira if both deals are sealed.
Daily Mirror writer Ryan Taylor wrote on X on Sunday: "Hamburg are close to agreeing a permanent deal with Arsenal for Albert Sambi Lokonga, per sources in Germany. Likely to be modest fee as Belgian midfielder's contract expires in 2026."
