Spurs transfer news: Arsenal and Manchester United keen on Joachim Andersen

Sampdoria defender Joachim Andersen has been linked with a summer move to Tottenham, according to Football.london.

However, Calciomercato (h/t Football.london) claims that Manchester United and Arsenal are also interested in the Danish centre-back.

The Danish centre-back has been impressive at the back for Samp and has picked up 29 appearances in all competitions for the Serie A team.

The 22-year-old has the potential to improve in the coming seasons and could be a quality signing in the years to come.

Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen have not signed new deals, and the pair have just one year left after this season.

Defensive requirements for United and Arsenal

United and Arsenal have had their defensive problems this season, but it is imperative we get our targets ahead of our rivals.

This summer cannot be a barren one with regards to new signings, and hopefully, Daniel Levy provides Mauricio Pochettino with the right amount to strengthen the side.

The Argentine manager has worked wonders of a tight budget, and Tottenham need one or two quality additions to take the team to the next level.

We face Manchester City in the quarter-finals of the Champions League and our next game is against Liverpool after the international break.
