Tottenham Hotspur have a £30 million buy-back clause for Kyle Walker-Peters who is now wanted by Arsenal
According to The Athletic [subscription required], Tottenham Hotspur have put a £30 million buy-back clause for Kyle Walker-Peters who is now wanted by the league rivals Arsenal.
Within the last transfer window, it has been more reserved, not only for Arsenal but for the majority of the Premier League and Championship clubs. Clubs will be careful because the PSRs of the Premier League provide restrictions.
It was expected that the ex-Spurs star would leave Southampton club in the summer because they got relegated to the Championship. On the other hand, he did stay with my St Mary’s and has been playing a vital part for them on the mission of gaining the promotion to the Premier League.
As of now, Arsenal have Ben White, Takehiro Tomiyasu, and Cedric Soares as their current starting right-backs. White is the one preferred this season, and Cedric did not appear in the Premier League game yet.
It appears that Chelsea would be a better fit for the full-back, as he could get more playing time due to the absence of first-choice right-back Reece James. He will only need to compete with Malo Gusto, who serves as the backup in that role.
A transfer to either team would see him make a comeback to the Premier League.

Despite his transfer in the summer of 2020, it’s possible that he still holds strong ties to his former club and would reject any potential offers. It’s worth noting that loyalty in the football world can be rare, and a significant amount of time has elapsed since his departure. This could explain why moving to Arsenal might not be viewed as a betrayal by the former Spurs player.
