Arsenal have agreed a deal to sign Georgian prospect Andria Bartishvili when he turns 18, via Fabrizio Romano.

The report states that Bartishvili, who plays as an attacking midfielder or out wide, will travel to England for a medical next week before signing five-year contract.

Bartishvili will turn 18 on March 30th 2027, although it isn’t currently clear if he will join Arsenal then or next summer.

A Georgia U21 international who is very highly rated, he currently plays for Kolkheti, who he joined from Dinamo Tbilisi’s youth setup.

In January he joined Iberia on a year-long loan move. He has scored two goals and provided three assists in 20 appearances during his loan spell so far. Previously he played 20 senior games for Kolkheti.
