Latest Tranfer Gist: Tottenham Keen On Buying Arsenal Star, Maitland-Niles

Tottenham are revealed plans to bid for Arsenal full-back Ainsley Maitland-Niles with Serge Aurier on his way out of the club,

Naija News learnt that Jose Mourinho has placed his eye on Maitland-Niles and Spurs have made him one of their top transfer targets.

Though Maitland-Niles sees himself as a central midfielder, he has been deployed at right-back or right wing-back over the last few seasons. Tottenham’s recruitment team views his versatility as a major asset.

While Maitland-Niles has racked up plenty of minutes at Arsenal, he hasn’t been able to nail down a regular starting spot and has Hector Bellerin in front of him at right-back.

Arsenal, meanwhile, are looking to sell players to fund their summer transfer business. They will reportedly listen to offers for Maitland-Niles in the region of £20million.
