Arsenal eye £36m Soler

VALENCIA want at least £36million if they are forced to sell Arsenal target Carlos Soler.

The stylish 23-year-old midfielder has also been courted by Manchester United, Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Valencia face a battle to keep their best players amid financial concerns. That may yet be accentuated by the knock-on effect of the coronavirus crisis.

Highly-rated winger Ferran Torres, who is admired by Liverpool, Manchester City and Bayern Munich, could also leave in the next transfer window while striker Rodrigo — once on loan at Bolton — has suitors too.

Arsenal want to bolster their squad but Valencia’s valuation of Soler may prove too high.

The Gunners remain open to a deal for Dani Ceballos who has been on loan at the club from Real Madrid.
