Olsson to join Wenger's club after impressing in two trials
Arsenal are close to completing the signing of Swedish teenager Kristoffer Olsson, according to the midfielder's current club.
The 16-year-old has had two trails with Arsene Wenger's outfit, the first coming back in February, and has impressed.
IFK Norrkopings starlet Olsson is now set to make a permanent move to England for an undisclosed fee.
"I can confirm that the transfer is close to being sealed. I won't comment on any sums, but of course we are happy with the deal," IFK Norrkopings sporting director Tony Martinsson told
Fotbolldirekt.se.
"We are pleased, but of course we would have preferred to have seen Kristoffer stay in Norrkoping and evolve to a first-team player.
"He wanted to take this chance and we will not stand in the way."
