Lisandro Martinez issues new transfer plea to Ajax after latest Arsenal and Man Utd offers

In-demand Lisandro Martinez pleaded with Ajax on Monday to grant him his wish to move to the Premier League.

It is the second time in a week that Martinez has told the Dutch club he wants them to allow him to leave with Arsenal and Manchester United locked in a two-way scrap for his signature. United tabled a £40m bid for Martinez over the weekend while Arsenal have made THREE separate attempts to sign him.

Ajax are demanding around £45m but also fundamentally do not want to sell the versatile Argentina international and have been holding firm. Mirror Sport revealed last week that Martinez had asked Ajax to grant him his wish to play in the Premier League. And now Martinez has repeated that plea specifically because Ajax have so far refused to engage in talks and have rebuffed all offers so far.
