It’s always best to wait for an official announcement before accepting that a transfer is done, but if they are spotted posing with fans of a club they’re expected to join then that’s a pretty clear sign.
Matteo Guendouzi was expected to leave Arsenal this summer at some point, and a return to French football with Marseille has been touted as the most likely option:

There hasn’t been an official announcement at this point, but he has been spotted with some Marseille fans so it’s an obvious sign that the announcement and completion isn’t far away at all:

He will be seen by many fans as a wasted talent because he does have potential, but the attitude wasn’t a good fit for Mikel Arteta and it will be interesting to see how he does with Marseille if it does go through.
This is a huge mistake. Arteta keeps surprising us Rowe next?
Why are we buying in the bargain basement!!! We was told when the stadium was pay for we would be attracting the big star’s!!! We should not be selling our good players on to average teams in the premier league.
