ARSENAL look set to miss out on Celta Vigo striker Nolito, according to reports in Spain.

 
Barcelona set to beat Arsenal to £13m Spanish international
Nolito looks set to snub Arsenal in favour of a move to Barcelona
 
Nolito has been in superb form so far this season, scoring eight goals for Celta in La Liga.
The Gunners and Barcelona have both been linked with a move for the 29-year-old, whose current deal contains a release clause making him available for just £13million. 
And according to Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo, the Catalan giants have now won the race for Nolito's signature after triggering the former Benfica man's buy-out fee.
 
But Barca are unable to spend big on signings this January so a loan deal has been struck, with the club then able to sign the Spain international in the summer. 
Barca boss Luis Enrique admitted yesterday that he wanted to add “more depth” to his forward line as the the club continue to battle on three fronts for titles.
Last season’s treble winners can now sign players for the first time since 2014 after they were handed a 14-month ban for breaching Fifa's rules on the transfer of players aged under 18.
Nolito was reportedly always in favour of moving to the Nou Camp instead of the Emirates, having spent three years there from 2008 to 2011.
