Arsenal's pursuit of Lyon's Lucas Paqueta has been dealt a major blow after he was left 'unconvinced' by a potential move to the club, report L'Equipe.
To make things even worse, It's added that Manchester City and north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur are the most credible options for the player, who is reportedly valued at around £50m. City are believed to be the most advanced in talks so far, but any deal could depend on the future of Bernardo Silva.
The Gunners are said to have shown serious interest in the midfielder this summer, with reports in France and Brazil suggesting that technical director Edu had already told the player's representatives that an official offer would be made.
