La Liga giants Barcelona have ‘rejected’ a huge offer from Premier League side Arsenal for one of its top players, according to reports.
The Gunners’ 2-2 draw against Crystal Palace on Wednesday means Liverpool now only need a point to win the Premier League title with Arsenal now likely to finish as runners-up for a third season in a row.
However, their title pain has been eased by their impressive performances against Real Madrid in a 5-1 aggregate victory in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
And potential Champions League glory would only strengthen Arsenal’s position in the transfer market over the summer and Mikel Arteta has already guaranteed a “big summer”.
Arteta recently commented: “It’s going to be a big one and we are very excited about it.
“The way we planned the five first summers, they were going to be very big and they were going to have different objectives because the turnaround of players and the objective of those windows was going to be different.

“But now when you are going to go again, we want to increase the depth of the squad but as well we want to increase the quality and the skills that we need to go to the next step.”
