"Alan Smith says that Danny Welbeck is an Arsenal player, despite mixed reports.  &amp;nbsp; #463790825 / gettyimages.com  Transfer Deadline Day has been full of twists and turns this evening. At about 6pm it was being reported that Danny Welbeck had undergone a medical at London Colney ahead of completing a loan deal to join Arsenal from Manchester United. Manchester United are looking forward to announcing Radamel Falcao's arrival which is reportedly leaving Welbeck available. Arsenal need a new striker with Olivier Giroud on the sidelines, and in fact, without his injury they could do with attacking reinforcements. But those reports soon dissipated. The deal was back-tracked as Arsenal made it clear no medical had been done and that they were not interested in the England international - disappointing, and pleasing, Arsenal fans depending on their view of the pacey forward. But according to a former Arsenal striker, the deal is in fact done! Alan Smith, who now works as a commentator for Sky Sports, suggested on Sky Sports News HQ earlier that he had received information saying Welbeck was in fact an Arsenal player already. He told Jim White: \"Well we were told that is off, we thought it was and at that point, a second after I got a text to say that the deal has been done. So we will wait and hear on that. I hear that they have secured the signature of Danny Welbeck. I don't know if it is a loan or they have signed him permanently but I think that is a good signing so let's hope that is the case.\" The BBC are now reporting that a fee of &amp;pound;16 million has been agreed for Welbeck. Another Transfer Deadline Day twist. Time will tell.Do you want Arsenal to sign Welbeck from United?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
