The 20-year-old, who was voted as Bolton's Player of the Season last term, looks set to complete a move to the Emirates this summer.

Arsenal are close to completing a £2.5 million deal for Bolton centre-back Rob Holding, according to The Sun.

Arsene Wenger is an admirer of the young defender, and is hoping to be more successful second time around, after already having an initial bid rejected earlier in the summer.

The defender, who featured twice for England Under-21s at this summer’s Toulon Tournament, is also wanted by Bournemouth, Everton and Celtic.
