Chelsea are calm over fresh competition from Arsenal for Barcelona midfielder Philippe Coutinho.
Le 10 Sport says Chelsea have a key advantage over Arsenal in the race for Coutinho.
The Gunners have emerged as an option because of Mikel Arteta‘s interest in attempting to revive the Brazil international’s career.
Emirates Stadium chiefs reportedly contacted the player’s agent, Kia Joorabchian, at the end of 2019 to register their interest.
Arsenal technical director Edu has a good relationship with Joorabchian but the club will struggle to finance any potential deal.
Premier League rivals Chelsea are also interested and they could hold the upper hand due to their stronger financial position.
