Report: Arsenal target Marcel Sabitzer wants to play for Tottenham

Turkish journalist Ekrem Konur has claimed that RB Leipzig midfielder Marcel Sabitzer is interested in joining Tottenham Hotspur.

According to reports from Sky Germany (h/t Fussball transfers), the 26-year-old midfielder has rejected a new deal from Leipzig, amid interest from Spurs.

Spurs could face competition from north London rivals Arsenal who are equally keen on signing the midfielder.

The Austria international is out of contract with the Bundesliga outfit at the end of next season, and he is ready to join Spurs on a free transfer.

French journalist Julien Laurens claimed on his podcast earlier this month that the Gunners are very keen on his signature.
