#2 North London
One of the things that ardent followers of the transfer rumour mill would notice is that Arsenal and Tottenham almost always end up being linked to the same player.
Today is no different as Leandro Trossard of Genk has been linked to the London duo. His agent himself has revealed that while Tottenham don’t seem too keen on the forward, Arsenal are looking at him.
According to Josy Comhair, the agent of the player, Arsenal have been following the Genk superstar since August. However, the Gunners also informed him that it is better for Trossard to stay another year at Genk while they keep him on their radar.
“I contacted representatives from Arsenal and Tottenham. At Spurs, nobody wanted to confirm that Trossard is an option, but Arsenal did," said Comhair.
“They told me Leandro has a very interesting profile for them and that they’ve been following him since August.
“They also added it was a good choice to stay at Genk for another year. They ended the phone call with ‘They are keeping a close eye on him’.”
