Arsenal, Manchester United Duel for Benfica’s Andrija Zivkovic.

Arsenal are reportedly desperate to beat Premier League rivals Manchester United to the signing of Benfica starlet Andrija Zivkovic.

Both the Gunners and United have recently scouted him and the Premier League duo are now preparing to battle it out for the Serbian’s signature in the summer.

Arsene Wenger was reportedly keen to sign the 21-year-old before he joined Benfica from Partizan Belgrade in 2016. Having previously missed out on his signature, the French tactician is determined now more than ever to land his target at the end of the season.

Zivkovic has a release clause fee in his contract of around £52.5m – cash that both Arsenal and United could be willing to spend, The 21-year-old could be viewed as a potential replacement for Jack Wilshere, who is yet to sign a contract extension offered by Arsenal.
