Arsenal interested in Cairney deal but fear they’ll be priced out

Arsenal are reportedly interested in a deal to sign Fulham midfielder Tom Cairney but worry that they may be priced out of a deal.

According to a report from the Daily Mail, the Gunners are admirers of the Scottish international, but there are concerns that those behind the scenes may not be so keen to pursue a deal given the cost it may take to convince Fulham to sell.

Cairney has established himself as a key player for Fulham, enjoying a starring role in their promotion from the Championship.

He has been hampered with injuries so far this season, but is considered as one of Fulham’s brightest players and is expected to flourish in the top flight this season.

The report claims that the growing cost of signing British players is forcing the Gunners to widen their scouting network and pursue deals for foreign players for less money.
