Arsenal are contemplating a double swoop for Mahrez and Vardy
A prospective move to the Emirates has gathered pace after the Gunners met his £20million release clause.
It was a thought a medical had been booked for the 29-year-old striker yesterday.
However, with a four-year deal on the table, it is thought Vardy will make a decision today before he flies off to France with England for Euro 2016.
But according to the Sun, there has been an intriguing new development.
The report claim Arsene Wenger is in talks to sign Mahrez too.
It is believed a move for Mahrez could spell trouble for Theo Walcott’s career, who has failed to shine.
