Liverpool are free to sign QPR’s Loic Remy after Arsenal pulled out of the race for him following a row about his wage demands.
The Gunners were heavily expected to sign the striker as backup to Frenchman Olivier Giroud. Remy was demanding £80,000 per week to join the Emirates, while Arsenal were only willing to offer £50,000, and now the move is off the table, despite there reportedly being an £8million fee agreed between the two London clubs.
Liverpool have already apporached QPR about a move, and they will now be clear favourites to land Remy this summer. A clause in the striker’s contract allows him to move to a top four club for just £8million, while any other club interested would have to pay £12million.
