Tottenham are not planning to make a last ditch effort to hijack Arsenal's Gabriel Jesus talks as Fabio Paratici's and Daniel Levy's priorities are currently elsewhere, football.london understands.
The striker's future is very much up in the air at the moment with Edu and the Gunners hoping to agree on a deal slightly short of City's £50million asking price. Currently, they are in the driving seat to win the deal over Tottenham and Chelsea, with the Gunners able to guarantee the frontman more game time than the likes of their London rivals.
Arsenal technical director Edu has been in contact with the player's agent since November and they are the frontrunners for his signatures, but the two clubs remain apart in their valuations, with City not needing to sell. A £45million deal looks likely, but Spurs were thought to be in the running to hijack any potential move.
