Arsenal were regarded as clear favorites to land Belgian international Yannick Carrasco from China, infact many Arsenal fans have been loading and reloading social media sites hoping for some announcements but here comes a bad one: According to The Sun, Arsenal have been priced out of a move to bring him back to Europe.
The 25-year-old is valued at around £30 million by Carrasco’s employers Dalian Yifang and the North-London side believed to only have about £45 million to spend this summer, any move for Carrasco seems unlikely unless there are some serious negotiations between the clubs.
Although with majority of Arsenal faithful including club legend Robert Pires demanding a complete rebuild but the rumored £40 million isn’t gonna do much and Unai Emery faces an Everest to climb with limited oxygen at his helm.
Talking about Carrasco, well – If Arsenal doesn’t have the cheque to bring him back to Europe, he does have Bayern Munich as reported suitors and nothing much to worry about but Arsenal does have to find someone as capable as Yannick in a budgeted transfer fee as well.
Surprisingly name of Lucas Vazquez has made its way to the papers.
Lucas Vazquez is surplus to requirements at Santiago Bernabeau and might just be heading outta Madrid in order to get some game time to live upto the name he has made for himself.
The acquisition of Eden Hazard and Rodrygo certainly means less game-time for Vazquez, and as reported by Marca, Real Madrid are ready to hear offers for the former Espanyol loanee.
Its still unclear how much would it take to get Florentino Perez on the table, although it will certainly be deficit to Carrasco’s £30 million.
Vazquez has been useful squad player for Los Blancos, having scores 21 goals and laid forty-four assists in 183 appearances. Although, the statistics are not soo tempting to splash the cash his work rate and versatility surely is and Unai Emery is known to like his direct style of play.
