Perez was also left out of the Arsenal Far East tour squad.

A source close to Fenerbahce revealed to Turkish-Football that they want Perez on loan.

The Yellow Canaries sent club officials to London for talks with Arsenal over Perez.

Fenerbahce have been keen on Perez for months but the Gunners have been holding out for a permanent deal.

Arsenal want to sell Perez and recoup from of the €21 million invested in the Spanish striker last summer.

The Istanbul giants are not interested in a permanent deal due to pressure from Financial Fair Play.

Perez does have another two-years remaining on his contract but he is keen on locking down a regular first team role next season to fight for his place in the Spanish national team.

Perez’s agent Llovelle recently told told AS that Fenerbahce are interested in his client but that Arsenal want around €12 million for his signature: “The truth is that the Turkish club has been interested in the signing of Lucas Perez for two months, I do not think it is very difficult to do, but Arsenal will not let it go. Have the assignment of Perez.

 

“Several clubs in Europe are interested in Lucas, but Arsenal want to make up part of the money that paid Deportivo the Coruña last summer, the club has paid 21 million euros for Lucas, and I think he is willing to accept a figure of around 12 million euros for his departure,” he added.
