Newcastle are set to be a force to be reckoned with in the summer transfer window after the change of ownership midway through the season. It is due to this that Arsenal could be one of the clubs that fall victim of the financial dominance of the Magpies.
According to the Times, Newcastle are lining up a €60million (£50m) for Lucas Paqueta ahead of next season. The player has reportedly already announced his desire to leave Lyon at the end of the season.
This news come after Italian news outlet Calciomercato reported that the Gunners were interested in signing the Lyon midfielder. Paris Saint-Germain were also said to be keen on acquiring the Brazilian ahead of next season.
