Arsenal have reportedly decided to continue with their pursuit of AS Monaco winger Thomas Lemar.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is a big admirer of the 21-year-old, who contributed 11 goals and 14 assists as Monaco won Ligue 1 and reached the semi-finals of the Champions League last season.
One bid has already been rejected and according to The Mirror, they expect a second offer for the France international to be turned down by the Monte Carlo outfit.
However, despite Monaco indicating that they do want to sell another of their star men, Wenger will maintain his interest in a player who he believes can make a difference at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal are also chasing Kylian Mbappe but with Real Madrid also keen on the teenager, a deal involving Lemar appears to have more chance of success.
The North Londoners have also been linked with Leicester City winger Riyad Mahrez, but it has been claimed that they are not willing to meet his asking price.
