Arsenal paid £42.5m for Mesut Ozil in 2013, then £52m for Alexandre Lacazette earlier this month. Now they could have to go through that new barrier to get Lemar, who is understood to be keen to move to the Emirates.
His fee, of up to £52m with add-ons, will surpass the £42.4m Arsenal paid Real Madrid for Mesut Ozil in 2013. Lacazette was second top scorer in Ligue 1 - the French top flight - last season with 28 goals.

His fee, of up to £52m with add-ons, will surpass the £42.4m Arsenal paid Real Madrid for Mesut Ozil in 2013. Lacazett, who has won 11 caps for France, was the second-highest scorer in Ligue 1 last season with 28 goals.
The Spaniard who currently plays for Italian club AC Milan was with Liverpool from 2005 to 2013 and made 285 Premier League appearances for the Anfield club.
Lacazette, 26, has scored over 20 Ligue 1 goals in each of his last three seasons for Lyon and will join Arsenal for a club record fee, eclipsing the £42.5m paid to Real Madrid to sign Mesut Ozil in 2013.
He moved back to France to play for Caen in 2015 before joining Nantes for one million euros and made his mark with 42 goals in his three-and-half years with the club. 4.
