Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal have been fairly quiet in the transfer window so far this summer, getting just two senior signings between them.

However, with⛦ just three weeks left before deadline day, things may be about to change for both clubs.

Arsenal, who have sღigned Riccardo Calafiori so far, are currently working hard to try and seal a deal for Real Sociedad’s Mikel Merino.

However, Tottenham – who have landed Archie G♛ray – are now seemingly set to sign a Premier League player that Arsenal were linked with earlier this summer.

Arsenal target Dominic Solanke now set for Tottenham

Both Tottenham and Arsenal have been linked with Bournemouth’s Dominic Solanke this summer.

In June, reported that tꦏhe Gunners had identified the 26-year-old sಞtriker as an alternative to Benjamin Sesko.

Since then, however, Tottenh��am have taken the lead in the Solanke race 🍃and now, according to Romano, an agreement has been struck.

The transfer insider reported that Tottenham and Bourn🥃emouth have agreed a deal worth £65million in total, wh💃ich includes add-ons.

It’s a record fee for both clubs, and Solanke is now set to travel forꦆ his medical ahead of signing a deal until the summer of 2030.

And so, it looks like this transfer saga is coming to an end, with Tottenham set to secure the signing of a striker J♕urgen Klopp has previously described as “wonওderful”.

Both Spurs and Ar𝄹senal cဣould do with strengthening their attacking ranks this summer.

The Lilywhites have been wit♏hout an out-and-out striker since Harry Kane swapped N17 for the 80939 of Bayern Mu🔜nich.

Meanwhile, the Gunners have also been without a classic No. 9, and they could’ve certainly done with one last season as they spurned a l൲ot of chances.

However, in this case, Tottenham now look set to triumph over Arsenal in pursuit of Solanke, who will be eager to build on his great 2023/24 campa༒ign.
