Liverpool and Arsenal set for fresh transfer battle
Liverpool and Arsenal are set to go head-to-head to try and sign highly-rated Lazio striker Keita Balde Diao, according to the Sunday Express.
Diao joined the Italian club in 2011 after making the switch from Barcelona’s youth team, but he is now being eyed up with both Premier League teams sending scouts to watch him.
Reports in Italy suggest that bids for the 19-year-old were rejected last week, with Lazio wanting €30m before they are willing to accept a bid for their Spanish born, Senegalese international.
