Arsenal are one of a ‘few teams’ who have initiated contact with Real Betis about signing Nabil Fekir, report AS on Monday.
AC Milan also get a mention, but no other clubs are named.
AS suggest an exit from Betis is possible this summer for the Frenchman, however, they’ve got big demands.
The Seville club want €50m for the former Lyon player, which would represent a big profit on the €20m (plus around €10m in potential bonus payments) they paid the Ligue 1 side last summer.
Arsenal don’t want to pay that much, with it being explained none of the clubs interested would be willing to hit the €50m figure. Lyon would be due 20% of any of the profit made, which is one reason for Betis to go as high as possible.
Even if their interest is genuine, Arsenal are unlikely to bend, so unless Betis drop their demands there’s likely nothing happening here.
