Real Madrid have reportedly set Arsenal a deadline of June 15 to agree a deal to sign Gunners captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
Madrid are keen to sign the striker, who is out of contract at the end of next season and appears set to leave the club in pursuit of Champions League football.
Arsenal are currently ninth in the Premier League table, 18 points adrift of fourth-placed Chelsea, and could even miss out on Europa League football.
That has given Madrid confidence they can sign Aubameyang this summer, with The Mirror reporting that they're keen to seal a deal within a matter of weeks.
