Arsenal's hopes of signing Lisandro Martinez from Ajax have taken a massive hit as Premier League rivals Manchester United are now confident of signing the Argentine defender.
Arsenal are said to have had two bids turned down so far. It's believed that Ajax want €50million (£43million) for his signature but no agreement has been reached yet.
One particular reason Arsenal are interested in Martinez is because of his ability to play multiple positions, namely central defence, left-back and defensive midfield.
