The Premier League champions agreed the £75m fee with Newcastle on Wednesday.
That would see the North Londoners pay the full amount with no add-ons across 24 months.
However, reports surfaced on Friday evening that there has been a hiccup in the move.
According to Diario AS , the hold-up is due to “bureaucratic issues”.
Arsenal will be hopeful the creases simply need ironing out before the official announcement and unveiling.
Even so, the report adds that Guimaraes had his first pre-season session with Mikel Arteta’s squad earlier on Friday.
