According to AS, Arsenal are interested in Atletico Madrid midfielder Saul and may have to complete an ‘impossible’ deal worth £150m to land his signature. The 23-year-old signed a nine-year contract in 2017, which will take his stay to 19 years, so the Gunners might have their work cut out getting him to England.
Signed from Real Madrid in 2008, Saul has risen through the youth ranks to the Atletico Madrid first-team, making over 190 appearances in all competitions, scoring and creating 43 goals. The Spanish international is loyal to Atleti and may not be open to a move, let alone the Rojiblancos actually accepting a bid.
