ARSENAL and Liverpool are set to go head to head in a transfer battle for Eintracht Frankfurt midfielder Jesper Lindstrom.
An "auction" for the Dane could see his initial price tag of around £35million soar to close to £50m, according to Sport Witness.
The 23-year-old began his career at Brondby before moving to the Bundesliga club after two spectacular seasons for the Danes.
Last season was his first full one at Frankfurt and saw him chip in with seven goals in 27 appearances.
Arsenal and Liverpool are both said to have "been in contact" following his impressive start with the Bundesliga side.
A bidding war is now expected with Newcastle and Tottenham said to be interested too.

Inter Milan and Juventus are also said to be aiming to lure the midfielder to Serie A, reports claims.
Frankfurt are "planning for the sale" of the Dane, who has ten caps and one international goal, and should make a healthy profit on the £5m they paid Brondby for him in 2021.
