Arsenal could be on the verge of supporting Tottenham’s transfer business in the summer transfer which would also weaken Mikel Arteta’s side. This comes due to Ainsley Maitland-Niles' proposed move to Nottingham Forest.
Maitland-Niles is attracting interest from Nottingham Forest over a permanent transfer, football.london understands. The newly-promoted side are targeting Maitland-Niles as a replacement for Djed Spence who has been linked with a move to Spurs. This also comes after Arsenal’s recent interest in the Middlesbrough full-back.
However, Edu must reject a deal between Forest and Maitland-Niles. Not only could it prevent Spurs from signing Spence as he could make a return to the side where he had success on loan last season, but the Arsenal player should be used as a backup option at full back for Mikel Arteta next season.
