Arsenal have reached a pre-contract agreement to sign highly-rated Georgian youngster Andria Bartishvili.
The 17-year-old will officially join the Premier League champions in July 2027, when he will be 18, subject to the completion of regulatory processes.
Bartishvili, who can operate as a winger or attacking midfielder, is currently on loan at Georgian top-flight side Iberia 1999 from parent club Kolkheti 1913.
He made his Erovnuli Liga debut for Kolkheti in 2025 and was subsequently named the division’s best Under-17 player at the end of the season.
The youngster stepped up a level by joining Iberia for the 2026 campaign and scored his first senior goal in May, netting the winner in a 1-0 victory over Gagra.
He has already made two appearances for Georgia Under-21s and will continue his development at Iberia before linking up with Arsenal next summer.
