Arsenal have agreed terms with Dinamo Zagreb to sign Croatia's Brazilian-born striker Eduardo Da Silva on a four-year contract, the Premier League club said on Monday.

Dinamo's fee for the move, which is subject to a medical and comes a week after France striker Thierry Henry completed his transfer from Arsenal to Barcelona, was not disclosed.

The 24-year-old moved to Croatia from Brazil when he was 15 and took Croatian nationality in 2002.

He has made 12 appearances for his adopted country and scored seven goals, including a header against England in Croatia's 2-0 Euro 2008 qualifying win last October.

Da Silva also scored the first competitive goal at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium in a Champions League qualifier last season.
