Other sources previously reported that Calafiori had agreed to sign a five-year deal worth €4m per season.
Calafiori is still not formally a new Arsenal player, so he’s still expected to join his Bologna teammates for the second part of the pre-season today.
Local newspaper Il Resto del Carlino reports that new Rossoblu coach Vincenzo Italiano will name his squad list on Monday afternoon.
Calafiori is expected to join Arsenal for €50m, including add-ons, while his former club, Basel, should get a sell-on clause below 50%.
