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...
