Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur both 'want' Spanish international as pundit makes bizarre Bukayo Saka claim

We are now just a few days away from the knockout rounds of Euro 2024, following England’s progression through the group stage but what is happening around the Emirates Stadium today?

Arsenal and their bitter rivals Tottenham Hotspur have both been linked with a Spanish international who currently plays in the Bundesliga, meanwhile, a pundit has made a strange claim regarding Bukayo Saka.

Arsenal and Tottenham chasing Dani Olmo

Arsenal and Tottenham have both been linked with a move for RB Leipzig and Spain midfielder Dani Olmo, according to a report from TBR Football.

The two North London clubs are not the only ones who have been linked with a move for Olmo in the ongoing summer transfer window - Premier League champions Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool are also thought to be in the race.

Ian Wright says Bukayo Saka should play at left-back for England at the Euros

Arsenal legend Ian Wright has made a bizarre call involving Bukayo Saka, as he believes the forward should be moved back to his original position of left-back for England. While this would ameliorate Southgate’s selection headache from an attacking perspective somewhat, Saka has not fulfilled this role for several years - it would be a massive risk to move him back at this pivotal stage of the tournament.

Speaking to ITV in his punditry role at the Euros, Wright said: “I’m starting to think, I saw a stat about Kieran Trippier being our second most productive player, touches and passes. I’m thinking, how are we going to get Palmer into the team if that’s the case?

“If that’s the case, with how naturally left-sided Saka is, maybe can you put Saka in at left-back and put Palmer on the right-hand side? Simply because we need to get some balance and get some fluidity in the game.”
