Arsenal have offered £92m (?100m) to sign Thomas Lemar from Monaco.
We understand Arsenal are yet to respond to Manchester City’s second bid of £55m for Alexis Sanchez.
The Gunners will not let Sanchez leave this summer without the arrival of a replacement.
Monaco don’t want to sell Lemar but we understand they could be tempted by Arsenal’s massive ?100m offer.
Lemar is due to play for France this evening in a crucial World Cup qualifier against the Netherlands, live on Sky Sports.
