Arsenal prepare €40m offer for attacking star wanted by Tottenham
Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keeping a close eye on RB Leipzig winger Antonio Nusa, with the Bundesliga club believed to have set a high asking price for the highly rated Norwegian.
Nusa has continued to make significant progress since joining Leipzig from Club Brugge in 2024, establishing himself as one of Europe’s most exciting young attacking players.
Antonio Nusa attracts Premier League interest
According to a report from Fussball News, Arsenal and Tottenham are currently among the clubs showing the strongest interest in the 21-year-old. Newcastle United and Aston Villa are also monitoring his situation, while several major clubs from Italy and Spain have been linked with the Norway international.
Arsenal could be prepared to make the first move, with the Gunners reportedly considering an opening proposal worth around €40 million. However, that figure would fall considerably short of Leipzig’s current valuation.
The German club is understood to want between €60m and €65m before considering letting their attacking star leave. His contract runs until 2029, meaning Leipzig are under no immediate pressure to negotiate a transfer.
Nusa could have several options
Nusa’s direct style of play makes him an attractive option for clubs looking to add more pace and creativity to their attack. The winger is particularly dangerous when cutting inside from the left and using his acceleration to attack defenders.
Tottenham have already shown interest in Nusa in the past, while Arsenal could now provide serious competition for his signature. Both clubs have been looking to strengthen their attacking options and could see the Norwegian as a player who could develop into a key contributor.
For now, Leipzig appear determined to retain control of the situation. Nusa is reportedly happy with his development at the club and is not actively pushing for an exit.
It remains to be seen whether either Premier League side will be willing to meet Leipzig’s sizeable asking price.
