The deadline of the transfer window is yet to come as per 8th August and it seems the Emirates deal makers want to finally get the transfer sorted.
Since arsenal has failed with two birds so far for the Celtic and Scotland defender and while they met the 25m euros asking price.
Also, Chelsea is just believed to having considering a bid for Crystal Palace star Wilfried Zaha when the transfer ban ends.
The club is currently serving their two-window ban and cannot sign players this summer. This may force Arsenal to speed up any potential deal as the winger is thought to be keen on joining the Gunners.
The former Palace manager Sam Allardyce told arsenal to get a move on and make the deal happen, while ex-Selhurst Park chairman Simon Jordan affirmed that arsenal can not afford him.
Chelsea's interest, though is no doubt suit Palace as it will mean they get to keep him for another season.
It has been also claimed earlier this week that the Gunners had decided to give up their chase after seeing a third bid rejected by Celtic.
It is also seems that arsenal are still chasing the Scot's signature and an agreement for the player.
The announcements are imminent for the arrivals of Dani Ceballos on loan from Real and Saint Etienne defender William Saliba and they are still very much in the hunt for Kieran Tierney.
