Arsenal continue to remain interested in signing Bruno Guimaraes despite the speculation linking him with Newcastle United.
The midfielder has been a long-term target for the north London giants, and Sky Sports claims that they could push for his signature.
The club are planning a late bid for the former Athletico Paranaense man, but they face a tough task of convincing Lyon this month.
Les Gones want around €45m for his services. While the Gunners can afford the fee, they must pay the entire sum up front to sign him.
The hierarchy are reluctant to do so, and this could scupper their chances of landing the 24-year-old. Newcastle face a similar situation.
The Magpies are planning multiple signings before the deadline, and their proposal to pay over four seasons has been turned down.
It remains to be seen whether either club will change their transfer stance. The Gunners could be saving funds for the purchase of a new striker.
