An official announcement from Arsenal is expected soon.
This brings an end to a long transfer saga. The Gunners failed in their first attempt to get Partey after offering player plus cash. Atletico insisted on his release clause.
Earlier today, Arsenal triggered it leaving Atletico Madrid powerless when it comes to keeping their star midfielder.
He is expected to sign a four-year deal.
