WILL THE DELAY IN THE THOMAS LEMAR TRANSFER AFFECT THIS ONE FOR ARSENAL.?

Arsenal are very keen to sign Thomas Lemar from Monaco, but the sale is not at all progressing as expected. Arsenal have made two bids for him one was 30, thirty million pounds , and the second bid was for 40, forty million pounds. And both were rejected now Arsenal may make a third bid of 45, forty five million pounds. But Arsenal have chosen the Algerian Riyadh Mahrez as a second option in case they miss out on Thomas Lemar. But then A.S.Roma have now entered the picture to buy the Algerian , the reason being they want to replace their player Mohammed Salah , who was sold to Liverpool , now Leicester City are asking 50, fifty million [pounds for Mahrez , which is more than what Thomas Lemar would cost. And by the way Mohammed Salah does not have a work permit yet.
