[b]Arsenal have reached an agreement with FK Haugesund to sign starlet Havard Nordveit, according to reports in Norway.
Arsene Wenger has been keen to tie up a deal for the 16-year-old defender and travelled to Norway earlier this week in hope of sealing his signing.
However, The Gunners had a bid in the region of £1.8million rebuffed by Haugesund, who then invited other top European clubs to table their bids.
Arsenal have now come back with an improved offer of £2million which has been accepted by the Norwegian club.
Nordveit is understood to have agreed a four-year contract at Emirates Stadium and the deal will officially go through on 2nd July.
The young stopper will travel with the rest of the Arsenal squad on their pre-season tour of Asia.
