Regardless of whether you are an Arsenal or a Tottenham fan, your club is about to undergo some big changes.
Spurs will be welcoming a new manager, who will want many changes made and could end up being Harry Kane-less, while the Gunners, if they keep Mikel Arteta, will sell a lot of players to revamp the squad.
Both, it seems, will want a new centre-back, and one of the names on their respective lists is Nikola Milenković.
Gazzetta dello Sport report as much on Friday, explaining that Fiorentina are ready to let him go since his contract expires in 2022 and he hasn’t agreed to a renewal.
It’s explained that, as well as Inter and Juventus, Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham are all interested in the centre-back’s services, who is currently valued at ‘at least €25m’.
For now, Milenković ‘seems oriented to remain in Italy’, but Gazzetta definitely don’t make that sound as definite, suggesting he could be swayed with the right offer.
His agent, Fali Ramadani, is making sure there isn’t too much furore around his exit, ‘knowing full well how important it is to manage the exit strategy with diplomacy’.
There’s certainly a door to be opened there for both Arsenal and Tottenham, but it remains to be seen, especially for the latter, what their definite targets are for this summer.
