The fetus in question. Born in 1998.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has confirmed that a fee has been agreed for Legia Warsaw midfielder Krystian Bielik.

Wenger said at his news conference that the player was to undergo a medical on Friday and, asked if everything else was agreed for the deal to go through, he replied: "Yes."

Legia had earlier announced that the 17-year-old was set for a move to the Emirates Stadium, with the player telling the Polish club's official website: "I'm going to London to fulfil my dreams. I hope I will become an Arsenal player soon."

The Guardian had reported that the fee for Bielik, who had also attracted interest from Hamburg, was likely to be around 2.5 million pounds.

And:

Arsenal have clinched a deal for Viktoria Plzen striker Martin Graiciar.

The 15 year-old Czech Republic prospect will join the Gunners officially in 2015 when he turns 16 years of age.

Chelsea and Real Madrid also made approaches for Graiciar, but Arsenal were willing to meet Viktoria Plzen's asking price.

The teen is moving to London Colney for a fee of around £200,000.
