Manchester City have reportedly joined the race to sign Arsenal star Bukayo Saka. Liverpool have previously been linked with a move for the 20-year-old, who is said to want to play Champions League football.
Arsenal are attempting to tie one of their most valuable assets down to a new contract but if the interest City and Liverpool is genuine, they may run into difficulties.
The Daily Mail claim that is the case. But while the report says any transfer this summer is unlikely, it states the top two in the Premier League this season are closely monitoring developments.
Saka's current contract contains an option year which, if Arsenal, as expected, activate it, will keep him at the Emirates until 2024.
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is an admirer of Saka, who fits the profile for the type of player the Reds sign under the German.
With Liverpool seemingly set to lose Sadio Mane to Bayern Munich this summer, Klopp is looking for a replacement for a man who has done so much in a red shirt. The ECHO have previously reported that Benfica striker Darwin Nunez is a target.
