Transfer ALERT! Arsenal, Man City and Liverpool told to pay up £26m for Nice starlet Dalbert

Nice will not consider selling Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool target Dalbert unless somebody stumps up his £26.3million release clause.

The trio of Premier League sides are on a list of clubs who were impressed by the versatile 23-year-old, who can play at both left-back or on the wing, during his first season in France.

Following his switch from Vitoria Guimaraes last summer, Dalbert impressed with 33 Ligue 1 starts last term.

It has been suggested that Nice would be ready to sell for around £12m this summer but now, according to Nice-Matin, he will not be sold for under his release clause.

The French club paid just £1.75m to land him 12 months ago but believe the levels of interest in Dalbert will ensure that someone will be ready to splash the cash to secure his signature.

Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City are all in the market for a new left-back this summer so it is likely the youngster will end up in the Premier League.
