Willian looks set to complete a move across London from Chelsea to Arsenal.
And a leaked clip from the latest trailer for video games PES 21 has appeared to ‘confirm’ the move with the Brazilian shown in Arsenal kit.
Arsenal have struck an official partnership with the Pro Evolution Soccer video game, which is FIFAs biggest rival.
Their latest seven-second clip says “new signing” at the beginning before featuring Willian wearing the new Adidas strip.
It then cuts to a shot of the outside of their stadium stating: “Welcome to the Emirates”.
The leaked clip, featuring a PES 2021 watermark in the bottom left corner, was leaked by The Sun.
Willian appears to have played his last game for Chelsea in their FA Cup final defeat to Arsenal.
The Blues are unwilling to break their club policy to hand the 31-year-old a three-year deal.
But Arteta is a big fan of the player and reportedly keen to add his experience and leadership to a young squad.
WIllian’s agent, Kia Joorabchian, has been open about his future and recently claimed he had multiple offers before making a decision after the cup final.
Joorabchian said: "We had big offers – one from MLS which required him to move on July 1 – but he’s always wanted to finish the season at Chelsea and the day after the season has finished he would decide.
"He has two concrete offers from Premier League clubs on the table, an offer from an MLS club, and two other offers from Europe
"He is going to make his decision after the last game of the season.”
Blues boss Frank Lampard said after the game: "I've got a great relationship with Willian.
"I don't know what that decision is [over Willian's future].
"If that happens over the next few days, as he said, that will be good to me in either way.
"Of course I'm very happy with Willian. He's been brilliant with me this season with input and work ethic within the squad.
"But it is his choice and I respect his choice.
"He's been a great servant for Chelsea.
"If he decides to move on, Chelsea moves on as well. We have to look forward ourselves."
