Debuchy completes Arsenal medical ahead of £8m move The France international is set to become the Gunners first summer signing, though the clubs spending could reach £40m this week as talks for Alexis Sanchez progress Mathieu Debuchy has undertaken an Arsenal medical ahead of a move from Newcastle United worth a minimum of £8 million, Goal can reveal. The France right-back will be confirmed as the Gunners first summer signing when the formalities of the transfer are completed in the coming days. Goal understands that Arsenal will pay an upfront fee of £8m for Debuchy that will be supplemented by appearance-related add-ons. The 28-year-old defender revealed he was in talks to join Arsenal in the wake of France’s exit from the World Cup last Friday. The terms of the deal were finalised over the weekend, allowing Debuchy to then complete a medical. Barring any late hitches, the Frenchman will be confirmed as Bacary Sagna’s successor later this week, with the possibility that it could be timed to coincide with the launch of the new Puma kit deal on Thursday.
