Wolves are close to signing Arsenal goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez on a season-long loan.
The 22-year-old Argentinian has little hope of first-team football under Arsene Wenger following the £10 million arrival of Petr Cech and the fine form of David Ospina last season.
Martinez's departure would, however, also represent a risk for Wenger -- Wojciech Szczesny has already been loaned to Roma and Martinez's departure would leave Arsenal with only two senior goalkeepers.
Jackett has also confirmed that Wolves have a verbal agreement with @Arsenal for the loan of Emiliano Martínez. Hopefully completed today.

Martinez was last season loaned to Wolves' Championship rivals Rotherham, whose manager Steve Evans said: "[He was] great for us.
"We're going to be watching Emi on Match of the Day in six to eight months and then for a number of years as Arsenal's No 1.''
