Arsenal's transfer target, William Saliba, was photographed alongside Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Alexandre Lacazette and Ainsley Maitland-Niles on Sunday night as he approached to travel to North London. .
The Gunners are about to win the race for the central defender 28 million, beating their local rivals, Tottenham, to knock down the 18-year-old.
He must undergo a medical examination in the coming days, before being transferred to the current club of Saint-Etienne for the coming season.
Like Arsenal, Saint Etienne is in the middle of a tour in the United States and Saliba did not play in his 2-1 defeat at Marseille this weekend.
He watched as a spectator and was photographed alongside Aubameyang, who made the trip to watch his former club at DC United's Audi Field, as well as Frenchman Lacazette and his teammate Maitland- Niles.
The U-20 international of France should become a team-mate with the trio, and photos of them in the same plane have gone around social media to excite fans of Arsenal.
Aubameyang spent three years playing for Saint-Étienne and had the chance to catch up with his coaching staff and old friends – including skipper Loic Perrin – at the club where he scored 41 goals in 97 stakes between 2011 and 2013.
The captain of Saliba in Saint-Etienne, Perrin, said that he still had a lot of challenges ahead before committing himself to be ready for his move to Arsenal after another year in play in France.
"It has exploded in the space of a year," Perrin said.
"The most difficult starts for him now.
"He does not have a lot of Ligue 1 matches to his credit.
"I hope this year will allow him to collect playing time so that he can leave ready."
