Arsenal transfer news: Jean Michael Seri update as Gunners battle for Nice star

The diminutive midfielder came close to joining Barcelona last summer and    He was also heavily linked with a Premier League switch in January.

  Chelsea have been linked with a swoop but Arsenal had appeared to be leading the chase.    However, according to The Sun, Napoli and Borussia Dortmund have now entered the fray.    Seri - who has a tantalising £35m release clause - still reportedly fancies a move to Arsenal though.    Gunners director of football, Raul Sanllehi, has held crunch talks with Seri's entourage over a deal. .

"Nice star Jean Michael Seri is wanted by Arsenal" The Ivory Coast international, who joined Nice from Pacos de Ferreira for £500,000 in 2015, is regarded as one of the hottest prospect in Ligue 1.

    Sanllehi is a big fan of Seri and is desperate to secure his services.

    Seri scored twice in 37 appearances for Nice this season, as his club finished sixth in Ligue 1.

Arsenal appointed former PSG boss Unai Emery earlier this week.

    And, as the Gunners adapt to life without Arsene Wenger, the new chief will only have a limited say over fresh faces.

     For most of his Arsenal tenure Wenger had total control over the club's transfer strategy.

Liverpool transfer news: Nabil Fekir looks certain for Anfield move - Duration: 3:10.

Liverpool transfer news: Nabil Fekir looks certain for Anfield move

That's according to bookies BetStars who reckon the Lyon ace is heading to Anfield.  Director of Trading Ian Marmion said: "Lyon midfielder Nabil Fekir has openly admitted he'd be interested in a move to Anfield this summer and the odds suggest that the 24-year-old Frenchman will be a Liverpool player before the transfer window closes in August.

"Liverpool are the clear odds-on favourites to sign Fekir at 1/6 as Jurgen Klopp continues to search for an ideal replacement for Philippe Coutinho and with PSG the second favourites at 16/1, it looks like Anfield is Fekir's likely destination if he is to leave Lyon this summer." Liverpool bigwigs look set to back Jurgen Klopp during this transfer window.  A £52.75m deal has already been rubber stamped for RB Leipzig midfielder Naby Keita.

A swoop for Fekir could take their summer spending past the £100m mark.

Fekir impressed in Ligue 1 this term, scoring 23 goals in 40 appearances.   .

"Lyon ace Nabil Fekir is wanted by Liverpool " The 24-year-old is attracting plenty of interest and Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas says his prized asset won't be sold on the cheap.  He has magnificently earned the right to go to Russia with the French national team, Aulas said.  That gives him a superior status.

For the moment, nothing has been decided.

Youll have to be very rich to recruit Nabil Fekir this year..

However, despite suggestions a deal with Liverpool is imminent, Aulas insists he's not been in touch with chiefs on Merseyside.  "There has been no contact at all with Liverpool, nor with any other club, he added.

I havent talked about his future with him at all.

Nabil also really wants to stay after qualifying [for the Champions League].

Were going to talk it through calmly..
