The agents of Arsenal duo Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez are said to have agreed to work together in order to maximise their chances of getting better deals for their clients.
Both players have contracts which are due to expire in 18 months' time and are seeking significant wage increases in order to sign new deals with the club.
Ozil is currently on £140,000 a week and Sanchez pockets £130,000 but both are believed to be after around £300,000 - the amount earned by Paul Pogba at Manchester United.
Chinese clubs have attempted to capitalise on the situation by offering Sanchez £400,000 a week, while Gunners manager Arsene Wenger has said that he is happy to run down both players' contracts if they fail to agree new terms.
According to the Daily Mail, Ozil's agent Erkut Sogut and Sanchez's rep Fernando Felicevich are now "keeping each other in the loop because it is in both their interests to do so".
Meanwhile, a report in the Spanish media today has claimed that Sanchez will only agree to a new deal if Wenger steps aside next summer.
