Jesper Lindstrom drops huge Arsenal transfer hint amid Premier League dream

Arsenal have been linked with a move for Eintracht Frankfurt midfielder Jesper Lindstrom for the upcoming January transfer window. A report from Bild last week stated that the Gunners are 'on the attack' for the Denmark international.

Lindstrom is an attacking midfielder who only signed for the Bundesliga side last year, but has started the new season off with three goals in nine appearances for last year's Europa League winners. According to the report from Bild, the Gunners have already 'put out feelers' to Lindstrom's agent.

Given injuries to Thomas Partey, Emile Smith Rowe and Mohamed Elneny this season, midfield could be a position that Arsenal look to bolster in January - although Lindstrom is more of a playmaker than an enforcer. They have also been linked with a move for Rennes and Croatia star Lovro Majer.

It's believed that Lindstrom could be available for less than £20million and the attacking midfielder has hinted that he would love to play in the Premier League in the future. “It’s a huge confidence boost," Lindstrom told Tipsbladet when asked about the reports linking him to Arsenal. "It’s one of the biggest things as a footballer, so I’m obviously very happy.

“It is hard not to read along when articles appear on your Facebook, Instagram and other social media. So of course, I read it, but I don’t take it too seriously. The transfer window is not open at all right now, so I’m just giving it my all and waiting to see what happens.

“It’s always great to play in the biggest league in the world, but whether Arsenal is right for me is hard to say. Right now, I’m in a good place in Frankfurt, but it’s great that there are clubs like them that are watching me. Something may have to happen at some point, but right now I’m fine.”
