BREAKING NEWS: Former Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp reports Mikel Arteta to FIFA for agreeing on terms with Liverpool’s top target, saying, “Arteta is ruining our game. I won’t let this last one happen.”
Tottenham Hotspur is set to discuss signing Feyenoord’s standout player Santiago Giménez this summer, but they face competition from Arsenal, according to Mexican outlet Fox Sports.
Spurs have already strengthened their squad by signing Archie Gray from Leeds United and are close to securing South Korean talent Min-Hyuk Yang, though Yang is not expected to play for the senior team next season.
Manager Ange Postecoglou is reportedly keen on additional signings, especially in attack. Jonathan David and Ivan Toney have been linked to Tottenham, but Santiago Giménez has also emerged as a target.
Fox Sports reports that both Tottenham and Arsenal are interested in Giménez, with the clubs potentially competing for his signature. Other major clubs like Juventus, AC Milan, RB Leipzig, and Atletico Madrid are also in the mix.
Although neither Tottenham nor Arsenal has made a formal offer yet, Giménez’s agent and father are planning to travel to Europe to discuss potential moves with interested clubs.
Giménez has just begun pre-season training with Feyenoord after participating in the Copa America. With four years left on his contract, Feyenoord can demand a substantial fee, valuing Giménez at around £34 million by Transfermarkt.
The 23-year-old had an impressive last season, scoring 23 goals and providing six assists in 30 Eredivisie matches, making him an attractive prospect for both North London clubs. The competition between Tottenham and Arsenal for Giménez’s signature could be a key storyline in this transfer window.
