Arsenal, Liverpool fight for Udinese duo?

Arsenal and Liverpool are reportedly both interested in Udinese duo Mehdi Benatia and Mauricio Isla.

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has previously been linked with the pair, but Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish could move ahead in the race, according to reports in Italy.

Udinese president Giampaolo Pozzo has revealed that there is interest for the pair, but remained tight-lipped on those involved. He told Radio Kiss Kiss: "At the end of the season we will see what happens, but it is certainly true that several clubs have asked about these players."

Udinese remain fifth in Serie A after drawing 2-2 with Napoli on Sunday.
