Arsenal are also interested in Tottenham target Allan Saint-Maximin
According to Fichajes, Arsenal are also interested in signing talented French winger Allan Saint-Maximin, with Tottenham Hotspur also interested in the player.
The attacker has divided opinions in terms of his talent, but there are no doubts about his ability to make a significant impact on the pitch when he is fit and firing. However, his stocks have reduced considerably this season.
Newcastle United could sell the Frenchman for a sizeable offer, as they look to revamp their attacking options ahead of next season. The 26-year-old has been a good player for the Magpies since arriving at St James’ Park, but his consistency has been questioned due to recurring injuries.
Saint-Maximin has a €35 million market value, but the Magpies could command a higher fee for the Frenchman in the summer window. His situation has alerted several Premier League sides, with Arsenal also reportedly interested in the attacker.
Spurs are searching for attacking reinforcements in the summer, with Harry Kane’s potential departure looming large. The North London club will likely reinvest a significant portion of the funds generated from Kane’s sale into new signings.
While Spurs are looking at other options as well, Saint-Maximin could bring something different to their attack. He is a versatile player who can play across the front line, and his dribbling ability and creativity would undoubtedly elevate the current quality of their front line.
However, the big question is whether Saint-Maximin would come at a reasonable price. Spurs could face stiff competition from Arsenal, who are reportedly interested in the Frenchman as well.
For now, Spurs remain in the race for Saint-Maximin, but things could get clearer around the end of the season. The talented Frenchman would be a gamble that Tottenham have to take and it could be risky.
