The Gunners have made buying Suarez their number one priority, and have already offered a club record fee of £40million plus £1 to sign him.
Liverpool have turned that bid down, and insist the player will stay put, but Arsene Wenger is increasingly confident he will get his man.
According to reports in Uruguay, the Frenchman has already drawn up a four-year-contract for Suarez to sign, that would see him take home £160,000-a-week at the Emirates Stadium.
Suarez currently earns around £120,000-a-week after negotiating a pay rise last summer, but Arsenal are willing to blow that amount out of the water.
Lukas Podolski and Theo Walcott currently lead Arsenal’s rigid wage structure, both pocketing £100,000-a-week each, but Suarez would be a special case.
He is seen as a marquee edition to the squad, and the work he is doing to force a transfer will be rewarded if the deal goes through with a signing on big fee already mooted.
Arsenal expect movement on this deal in the next few days.
How is that possible when Henry have already said we are not selling to Arsenal? Or is it an out-dated report?
