Arsenal Newsnow: Arsenal and Manchester United are reportedly engaged in a bidding war for Real Betis attacker Luiz Henrique
Arsenal Newsnow: Fichajes claims that Manchester United and Arsenal are both interested in signing striker Luiz Henrique from Real Betis. The Brazilian winger is one of the league’s top performers. As a result of Chelsea’s quick action, the Gunners were unable to sign Mykhaylo Mudryk, a Ukrainian winger who had been coveted by many clubs. The transfer cost was alleged £88.5 million, which was a huge sum at the time.
The Gunners will start looking elsewhere. Henrique may end up being the most viable choice. During Betis’ recent Spanish Super Cup match against Barcelona, the young player showed some flair by setting up both of his team’s goals.

It has been challenging to generate money for Manchester United because of the club’s poor financial situation. Given how much money they spent during the summer, they can only afford to make loan transactions during this transfer window.
Many teams, including Everton, are still interested in signing Anthony Elanga away from Old Trafford. It’s possible that the Swedish winger will be leaving the club in the near future. If that’s the case, the Red Devils could look for a new wide receiver.

Who will get Luiz Henrique?
Henrique signed a six-year contract with Real Betis this summer. Since the Andalusian club now holds all the cards in the transfer of the Brazilian winger, they have nothing to worry about. However, the allure of the Premier League might end up being a major roadblock to their goals. Betis may be compelled to sell their cherished possession.
