Arsenal and Newcastle clash over the signing of Lucas Paquetá

Currently considered one of the main highlights of European football, the Brazilian Lucas Paquetá could be on his way to the Premier League. Arsenal and Newcastle emerge as favorites to close with the midfielder of the Brazilian team. The player revealed by Flamengo has been in European football since 2018, when he was hired by Milan, Italy, where he experienced ups and downs in his passage through Italian football.

Lucas Paquetá's career in Europe took a big turn in the year 2020, when Lyon, from France, closed his contract. In French football, the midfielder began to demonstrate great football, and in the current season, he was one of the main highlights of the French championship, and still managed to consolidate himself in the Brazilian National Team.

In the next transfer window several should compete to close with the Brazilian. And despite rumors of an interest from PSG, where the player would continue to play in French football, Paquetá's destination could be the Premier League, with Arsenal and Newcastle appearing strong in the dispute and signaling high proposals for the midfielder.

According to the British press, Newcastle is willing to pay around 59 million euros and make Lucas Paquetá the most expensive signing in its history, the value would be higher than the transfer of fellow Brazilian Bruno Guimarães, which cost 52 million euros. The two Brazilian teammates can thus form a duo of midfielders at the English club.

Arsenal can convince Paquetá with Arteta's project

However, it should also be noted that Arsenal appears strong in the dispute for the Brazilian, being able to convince him with the project of coach Mikel Arteta, which prioritizes young players to be protagonists. In addition, the Brazilian Edu Gaspar, manager of the English club, can also help in negotiations with Lucas Paquetá. What is certain is that in the coming weeks the midfielder should change clubs in European football and shake up the market.
