Arsenal are hoping to go back in for RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano.
The centre-back is their main defensive target for the next two transfer windows.
German reports suggest that his club want a fee close to what Manchester United paid for Harry Maguire.
But according toL'Equipe, he will have a buyout clause in his contract of £53 million that becomes active next summer.
It would allow the Gunners to get him for a similar fee they are believed to have offered Leipzig in the past summer window.
Upamecano has been recovering from a knee injury this season, which has limited his game time.
