Arsenal have submitted a second bid for Lisandro Martinez which Ajax are currently mulling over, according to reports.
It comes after the Gunners had an initial offer for the centre-half immediately rejected as they continue to go after defensive reinforcements this summer. Martinez is one of several Ajax stars to be on the radar of Premier League clubs as Manchester United are also keen.
So far the north London outfit have seen a £29m bid turned down out of hand, but have returned with an increased offer which is at least being discussed by Ajax bosses, reports Goal. The 24-year-old is appreciative of the foundation that has been afforded to him in Amsterdam but would like a switch to England's top flight if an agreement can be struck.
