Arsenal have now made a late move to sign ‘talented’ prospect who was about sign for Tottenham
Arsenal are now attempting to pull of a last gasp move to prise one promising youngster away from signing for Tottenham Hotspur.
The season has not even started yet and the North London Derby is already taking shape away from the pitch.
Both Arsenal and Tottenham have made slow starts to the summer transfer window when it comes to arrivals.
Ange Postecoglou‘s side have only brought in one permanent signing in Archie Gray with Mikel Arteta awaiting on his first big additions.
But the two clubs are now going head-to-head in an attempt to sign a seriously promising youngster.
Arsenal trying to hijack Tottenham summer move
Both sides have now jetted off for their pre-season tours which take them to opposite sides of the world.
The Gunners are now in Los Angeles, United States and Spurs have just landed in Tokyo, Japan.
But the transfer dealings will continue to rumble on in the background with both clubs looking for improvement on last season.
Although not an option for the first team ahead of the new campaign, it seems the two clubs are now battling it out to seal the services of one seriously promising talent.
