Arsenal 's hopes of landing Lyon star Lucas Paqueta have been handed a huge boost with the Ligue 1 side having dropped their excessive demands.
The Gunners have been linked with a move for the Brazilian international this summer, with boss Mikel Arteta keen to add even further to his midfield options despite the prior arrival of Fabio Vieira from Portuguese giants FC Porto.
Leicester star Youri Tielemans has long been linked with a switch to the Emirates Stadium with just one year remaining on his current contract with the Foxes. A deal, though, appears to be dragging on for the Belgian, leading to the Gunners exploring other options.
