Venezuelan model 'confirms Karim Benzema Arsenal move'

Karim Benzema is due to arrive in London for a medical with Arsenal, according to model and TV presenter Jeinny Lizarazo.

The French international has been heavily linked with a move to the Gunners, whose manager Arsene Wenger has reportedly been given the green light to move for the Real Madrid star.

However, Lizarazo, who is a famous model and football presenter in her native Venezuela, as well as a Real fan, has tweeted that the ex-Lyon frontman will travel to England on Sunday to finalise a switch to the Premier League side.

Lizarazo had admitted that she does not usually break big transfer stories, but is supposedly adamant that Benzema will be moving to the Emirates Stadium.
