Arsenal are willing to listen to offers for Justin Hoyte after
agreeing terms with Auxerre defender Bakari Sagna.
The 24-year-old Frenchman has passed a medical and the clubs are
expected to finalise a £7.5million switch today.
Manager Arsene Wenger is now ready to sell £2m-rated Hoyte, with
Reading leading the chase.
Wenger has earmarked Sagna as his first-choice right-back, with
Emmanuel Eboue expected to provide competition for Alexander Hleb
and Theo Walcott on the right side of midfield.
Wenger is also willing to sell Freddie Ljungberg and Jose Reyes.
The Swede is in talks with Fiorentina, while Reyes is a target for
Real Madrid after his loan spell there.
Poor hoyte...
