Frank Lampard told the asking price to add Aouar to Chelsea squad this summer
Chelsea have been delivered a blow in their pursuit of Houssem Aouar, with Lyon insisting they won’t sell for anything less than €60million.
With Frank Lampard doing alot of business this summer window and trying to build a side that could dominate for the next couple of years, there has been some rumours that he may carry on his summer of spending by making a move for Aouar.
Aouar has become one of the most sought after young midfielders in the game and just the type of signing that Frank Lampard would love to add to his side in order to give the attack something different
Speculation have suggested that we are ready to swoop in and offer around £35 million to get the exciting midfielder all signed up this summer, but that asking price has now gone up with all the speculation surrounding the man.
According to Fabrizio Romano Lyon know the value of the young man and know that all the interest has now bumped up the players asking price, meaning that they will be asking for more than was expected.
He Tweeted: “They [Arsenal] are absolutely interested and are monitoring the situation, but nothing advanced.
“He’s a top player. They [Arsenal] have spoken with his agent.
“Again – they need to sell, but nothing less than €60m. He’d be one of the best signings this window.”
There is no doubt that Aouar is a very gifted player that would be a brilliant signing for the club, but with all the midfielders that he now have in the squad, he is not really needed.
Although i wouldnt mind having him in the squad if he made that move to the club.
