Arsenal are reportedly considering a shock swoop for Tottenham star Toby Alderweireld.
According to The Sun , the Gunners are one of a host of clubs considering a move for the Belgian centre-half as he's linked with a cut-price £25million summer exit.
A clause in his contract is set to allow the long-time Manchester United target for way below market value and Unai Emery is keen to act to strengthen his side on a budget.
There have so far been no official approaches for Alderweireld, but Spurs are keen to act to tie him down and wipe out the clause, which would hand interested parties a major advantage if they act before July 26.
