Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly among the clubs aiming to strike a deal for Bordeaux starlet Yacine Adli.
The 21-year-old rose through the youth ranks at Paris Saint-Germain, making one senior appearance for the capital side amid reported interest from Arsenal in 2018.
However, Adli ultimately elected to sign for Bordeaux in January 2019 and quickly established himself as a regular for Les Girondins, who narrowly avoided relegation to Ligue 2 last term.
With Adli's deal at Bordeaux due to expire in the summer of 2023, Foot Mercato journalist Santi Aouna claims that Arsenal and Spurs are both hopeful of striking a deal for the midfielder.
Aouna adds that AC Milan are also interested and have seen a £10m bid swiftly knocked back by Bordeaux, while Ligue 1 champions Lille view Adli as a potential replacement for Manchester United and Liverpool-linked Renato Sanches.
Adli has already featured 69 times for Bordeaux in all competitions, scoring five goals and assisting eight more.
