Arsenal midfielder Miguel Azeez could join Spanish third division club Atletico Baleares before the January transfer window closes tonight, according to CBS Sport journalist James Benge.
The Gunners are working on a permanent deal which would see the Hale End academy graduate leave the North London club.
Azeez was once widely considered to be one of the brightest prospects at the Arsenal academy, but he has not been able to break into the first-team.
Arsenal working on a permanent exit to Spanish club Atletico Baleares for Miguel Azeez, once considered one of the brightest prospects at Hale End. This one could run to the wire and may not be concluded before the window shuts but there’s a will to get it done in time.— James Benge (@jamesbenge) February 1, 2024
The 21-year-old has had loan spells with Portsmouth, Union Deportiva Ibiza and Wigan Athletic, but a permanent exit could now be on the cards.
Azeez has been with Arsenal since he was five years of age, making his first-team debut in December 2020 after replacing Joe Willock in the closing stages of the Europa League group game against Dundalk.
However, his last two loan spells did not go as planned and the Gunners are now willing to part with him.
