Tottenham and Arsenal join race for RB Leipzig winger Antonio Nusa

Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal have entered the race to sign RB Leipzig winger Antonio Nusa, with the Norway international attracting growing interest following his impressive performances at the FIFA World Cup.

The North London rivals are monitoring the 21-year-old alongside Serie A clubs Roma and AC Milan, although RB Leipzig's reported £51 million valuation could prove a major stumbling block for all interested parties.

Nusa has emerged as one of the most sought-after young wingers in Europe after building on his Bundesliga form with an impressive World Cup campaign for Norway.

The attacker featured in six matches during the tournament and scored Norway's opening goal in their last-16 victory over Ivory Coast, further enhancing his reputation.

His performances have prompted both Arsenal and Tottenham to assess a potential move before the transfer window closes.

Arsenal are reportedly monitoring the situation as they evaluate their options on the left wing.

While the Gunners are not actively looking to sell Gabriel Martinelli, a significant offer could alter their plans.

Following Leandro Trossard's departure and the arrival of Christos Tzolis, Arsenal continue to assess further additions after missing out on Morgan Rogers, who completed a move to Chelsea earlier this summer.

Tottenham also admire Nusa but are expected to resolve several squad issues before launching a formal bid.

The futures of returning loanees Manor Solomon and Mikey Moore remain undecided, with Spurs keen to trim their squad before committing to another major signing.

The club are also looking to strengthen their wide attacking options after injuries disrupted preparations during pre-season.

Interest in Nusa extends beyond the Premier League.

Both Roma and AC Milan are reported to have already held discussions with the player's representatives as they attempt to gain an advantage in the race.

Roma are said to be preparing an offer worth around £38 million, while Milan reportedly view Nusa as a priority target should they generate funds through player sales.

Antonio Nusa's future is expected to become clearer as interested clubs decide whether to meet RB Leipzig's asking price. Tottenham and Arsenal remain among the clubs monitoring developments, while Roma and AC Milan continue their pursuit of the Norwegian winger.
