Arsenal fans have urged the club to move for Graham Potter before he joins Tottenham Hotspur after their Europa League exit last night.

Arsenal’s aggregate loss against Villarreal means that Mikel Arteta has fallen under huge pressure at the Emirates Stadium.

With Tottenham already looking for a new manager following the departure of Jose Mourinho there is a real possibility that both North London clubs could be hunting for a new boss in the near future.

And Arsenal fans feel that a move for Brighton & Hove Albion boss Potter would be a very smart move, although they fear Tottenham may get their first.

Football London have reported how Tottenham’s players would welcome the appointment of Potter, which could raise the chances of him joining.

It remains to be seen whether Arsenal will part company with Arteta now, but questions will surely be asked.

Arsenal are in ninth place in the Premier League and their failure to win any silverware means that this season has to be seen as a huge failure.

Potter has never managed a club of the statute of Tottenham or Arsenal, but his passing play has caught the eye.

And if he could implement his style successfully at Tottenham or Arsenal, he could be an appealing addition for either of the North London clubs.
