Arsenal have had three bids for Monaco's midfielder Thomas Lemar rejected. The last of which was upward of 45m pounds.
Now according to reports, Arsenal are again in for the 21 year old and the deal could be completed by the end of the week.
The French champions have seen most of their key players depart to the Premier League for huge fees. Bernardo Silva and Benjamin Mendy were signed by Manchester City for a combined fee of 95m pounds. While Bakayoko is now in the books of Chelsea. But they have been reluctant to do business with Arsenal. Deciding instead to hold on to a player that contributed 14 goals and 14 assists to Monaco's last campaign.
With the beginning of the season getting close, it remains to be seen whether this latest report on Lemar would turn out to have some legs to it. So far Monaco have rebuffed all attempts from Arsenal to get him, whether that could be about to change, time would tell.
