The transfer rumour mill is a fast-paced smattering of elements of truth mixed up with a whole lot of smoke. Nonetheless, sifting through the mess can be fruitful (sometimes), so let\u2019s take a look at the transfer turnstile that was today.<\/p>\n
Two news outlets have been touting a potential transfer or Thomas Lemar from Monaco to Arsenal over the past two days. With the recent signing of French striker Alexandre Lacazette from Lyon, Gunners fans are keen to see the trend continue. To compound the importance of bringing in more talent, is the recently revealed hefty price tag that Alexis Sanchez has placed on himself. Reports indicate the Chilean is demanding a\u00a0\u00a3400k per week wage, which is over\u00a0\u00a3100k more than what the club offered recently. With a wide gap between the two sides, perhaps a second key signing in Thomas Lemar, coupled with a re-signing of Mesut Ozil, would ease the pain of losing one of the game’s top strikers. Lemar is a coveted prize in this transfer market, and landing him would be quite the feather in the twilight of Arsene Wenger’s career at the club.
