Sadio Mane’s decision to leave Liverpool could see Arsenal miss out on an ideal signing ahead of next season. The Reds have reportedly lined up Ousmane Dembele for a summer transfer move should Mane move on.
According to Spanish news outlet Sport, Liverpool have contacted Dembele’s entourage to gauge the player’s intentions this summer. Dembele’s agent has announced that nothing has been signed with anyone and that his future is still open.
This could turn out to be a major blow for Arsenal, as he would be an ideal signing for Mikel Arteta next season. If Liverpool were to continue their pursuit for Dembele, they would likely have a better chance of signing him due to the fact that they are playing in the Champions League, and have stamped their marker as one of the best teams in Europe over the past few seasons.
