Arsenal must get serious to snap up 27-year-old Real Madrid star

English Premier League side Arsenal have received the signal that they must get serious in their bid for Spanish La Liga giants Real Madrid player Lucas Vazquez.

This is after it was revealed that Premier League leaders Liverpool are also in the race for the star player as they wish to secure his signature in this winter transfer window.

It is reported that Lucas Vazquez could leave the Los Blancos should former West London outfit Chelsea manager Antonio Conte take over from Julen Lopetegul.

The Spanish giants are desperately in search of a new manager and the former Blues’ boss as well as the former Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho are both being linked with the job.

However, the Gunners have got the advantage to snap up Lucas Vazquez with claims that he will not be ready to work under a new manager at the Benerbeu.

Lucas Vazquez has been a great player who has no loud achievements but he has been able to secure three Champions League medals as a Real Madrid player and he is tipped to be the man needed by the Arsenal team to give more firing power to beat Chelsea in the fight for the fourth place spot.
