Riccardo Calafiori has been filmed at the airport heading for his private flight to London to head to Arsenal to finalise his move there.

Gianluca di Marzio provides footage of the Bologna defender today, with him shown leaving an unidentified airport in Italy and heading towards a private jet, which will presumably take him to London.

Calafiori is set to join Arsenal, with reports over the last 24 hours indicating that they have finally reached an agreement with Bologna to sign the defender this summer.

They’ve been chasing his signature for weeks, but the deal has been stuck in the mud, with various issues, including how different parties will be paid, holding up the matter.

An agreement has now been struck, though, and it was reported that a medical had been booked for the player at Arsenal.

It seems he’s now flying out to London for that, with Di Marzio’s footage showing him at the airport and heading towards his plane alongside his entourage.

Now all that remains is for the update in the coming hours that he’s arrived in London and the updates after that on his medical, which will surely be forthcoming as this saga nears its conclusion.
