Arsenal Submit £70m Bid To Sign Nicolas Pepe From Lille

Arsenal have submitted an €80million (£70m) offer to Lille for Nicolas Pepe, Telefoot reports.

Unai Emery is in the market for a new wide player and the club have already failed with a £40m offer for Wilfried Zaha, who Crystal Palace value at £80m.

Pepe also fits the profile Arsenal are looking for, but the 24-year-old has attracted interest from other big clubs following his impressive performances last season.

The Ivory Coast international scored 22 goals in Ligue 1 and registered 11 assists, but he lost out to Kylian Mbappe for the division’s Player of the Year award.

It is believed Lille is considering the bid for their star player.
