Monaco striker Park Chu-young is set to complete a move to Premier League side Arsenal this weekend.
The South Korea captain had been close to signing for French side Lille, but will now travel to London for a medical in the next 24 hours.
Park, 26, who was a former target for Premier League rivals Fulham, will cost the Gunners betwen £3m and £5m.
“From what we understand he could be at Arsenal. Everything had been agreed.” said Lille president Michel Seydoux.
“We haven’t had a telephone call, nothing. Lille are baffled.”
Lille were surprised on Saturday at the disappearance of Park, who failed to show up for the second part of his medical, having agreed terms to join the French champions.
Park had been due at the northern French side to continue with the pre-signing examination, which he had begun on Friday.
