Arsenal Are Yet To Make Contact Over A Potential Transfer For Lyon Midfielder Lucas Paqueta. Still, the Italian reporter suggests this could be a deal to look out for over the rest of the summer transfer window, whilst also revealing that the Brazil international would likely cost around €60-65million.

Writing in his latest exclusive column for CaughtOffside via Substack, Romano says that the player’s camp have denied negotiations for Arsenal, though the player is understood to be keen on a move to the Premier League.

“At the moment, Paqueta’s camp has denied the negotiations because so far Arsenal have not made any proposals for Lucas,” Romano writes.

“It will be a situation to be monitored until the end of the transfer market because Paqueta would love to play in the Premier League.

The 24-year-old is a top talent, but he’d surely be more expensive than Youri Tielemans, who is in the final year of his contract at Leicester City.

As Ben Jacobs tweets above, Tielemans has also been linked with Arsenal and is thought to be one of their priorities.

Given the Belgium international’s likely availability, as well as his proven quality in the Premier League, one imagines that deal would make a lot more sense for Mikel Arteta and co.

Then again, there is the Brazilian connection at the Emirates Stadium, with Edu signing the likes of Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Magalhaes and Marquinhos in recent times.
