Report: Monchi jumps ship at Roma; Arsenal agreement imminent
La Repubblica suggest that Roma president James Pallotta will soon hold a press conference where he announces Monchi's departure; the Spaniard likely to move to Arsenal for a fee of around €1.5m.
Monchi will be reunited with former colleague Unai Emery; the duo working alongside one another in their infamous stint with Sevilla. Emery needs someone he is familiar with pulling some of the strings and Monchi allows for greater off-the-pitch chemistry that Arsenal will be hoping can revolutionise their team.
