Manchester City's bid to sign Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez looks to be over.
It is understood that a conditional agreement was reached in principle between City and Arsenal for Sanchez to move to the Etihad Stadium.
The fee was £55m, plus £5m in add-ons.
But it depended on Arsenal first securing a replacement to fill the gap left by the 28-year-old.
Their target was Monaco winger Thomas Lemar and an agreement was reportedly reached between the clubs for a fee in the region of £90m.
However, it is thought that the 21-year-old France international decided against the move.
City are currently not prepared to resurrect the deal by offering a player in exchange or more money for a straight cash deal.
Barring a remarkable last-minute turn of events Sanchez, who wanted to join City to be reunited with his former Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola, will stay at Arsenal.
Lul, cucked by Lemar.
Fucking lol
Goodl luck to arsenal, this will make Sanchez furious.
