The number of interests for Arsenal top target continues to grow

There are fears that English Premier League outfit Arsenal could miss out on their top target and French Ligue 1 outfit Lille forward Nicolas Pepe as the number of suitors for his signature is growing.

Initially, the race was between the North London outfit and the Spanish La Liga side Barcelona but as it stands, Nicola Pepe would be receiving offers from Liverpool, Man United and Inter Milan ahead of the summer transfer window, if reports are to be believed.

This, therefore, means that the Spanish La Liga outfit are out of the race for the signature of the Lille star but that does not give Arsenal the free run.

It is therefore claimed that the Italian Serie A outfit Inter Milan have already stepped forward with a £53 million bid for the star player and they are currently awaiting response for a deal to go down.

However, it is yet to be seen if the North London outfit will be ready to pay as high as a £53 million for Nicolas Pepe, knowing that manager Unai Emery has got a limited budget of £40 million to secure new additions to the team as that will be the only challenge in the summer transfer window.
