Per Mundo Deportivo, Arsenal are prepared to put in a huge bid and offer the player the “contract of a lifetime” to join.

Merino does have experience of playing and living in England, having previously been with Newcastle United.

He spent the 2017/18 season on Tyneside, joining on a loan and then permanent deal from Borussia Dortmund.

However, he did leave after a year and homesickness was a key reason for his departure.
