Chelsea leading Arsenal and Liverpool in race for Monaco star
Published:Chelsea have leapt ahead of Arsenal and Liverpool to emerge as new favourites to sign Monaco midfielder Thomas Lemar.
Lemar was heavily linked with a move to Arsenal this summer. But our traders think Chelsea could pip their London rivals to his signature.
The France international is 6/4 to move to Stamford Bridge.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is a long-term admirer of the silky playmaker. But without Champions League football, the Gunners are second-favourites at 2/1.
Liverpool are also in the hunt at 7/2.
Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: “If there’s any justice in the world, Lemar will secure a move to the Premier League in the coming months.”
He added: “But with Chelsea now favourites to sign him, Gooners will have one message for Wenger when it comes to the race for the youngster’s signature: Don’t Give It Up.”
