Report: Arsenal have made improved third bid for Lisandro Martinez
Arsenal have made an improved third bid for Lisandro Ma𒀰rtinez after failing with a £34 million offer for the Ajax defender, .
The Gunners view Martinez as a key defensive target. They have already 💜made two attempts to sign the 24-year-old, with the opening bid proving to be worth £26 million.
Ajax however, value the Argentina internationa🍷l at £43 million.
that ꩵArsenal have now made a third bid for the centre-back. It is not clear just how much Mikel Arteta’s men have put on the table for Martinez this time around.
However, The Sun claims 🔯that it 🗹is unlikely to be enough, with Arsenal offering a greater amount in add-ons. Ajax expect any club to get much closer to the price before they let him go in this window.
Arsenal made improved third Lisandro Martinez bid
Arsenal are clearly not too far away🔜 from meeting Martinez’s asking price. And therefore, you would imagine that there 𝓡may well be a breakthrough in talks at some stage in the coming weeks.
Martinez would be an exciting signing for the Gunners. He is predominantly a centre-back. But he would also be 💞able to play on the left and provide cover and competition for Kieran Tierney.
And reports this week have claimed that they also view Martinez🌱 as a potential option to push forward into midfield. So he would help🐽 address the depth in 🍷a number of areas in the Arsenal squad.
Obviously, Arsenal will have a figure in mind at which they value Martinez. And they will be wary of overpaying when centre-back probably is not ♒a priority right now.
But clearly, they admire Martinez greatly. And the two clubs aꩲre seemingly not that far apart𒁏 at this stage.
