According to a report from L’Equipe, Premier League trio Arsenal, Everton and Tottenham have all been offered the chance to sign Marseille’s Morgan Sanson this summer.

The 25-year-old has had an impressive season in Ligue 1, scoring five goals and assisting five more for Andre Villas-Boas’s side.

The report claims that the Olympians desperately need to raisw funds and have transfer listed a number of their stars in order to raise about £53 million in player sales before the start of next season.

L’Equipe now claim that Sanson’s agent, Pini Zahavi, has held talks with Arsenal, Tottenham and Everton about his client but Marseille’s demands could see any deal collapse.

The Ligue 1 giants want at least £30 million for their star midfielder; something that Zahavi allegedly feels is a bit too much to ask.

Arsenal and Everton are on the lookout for a new midfielder, but it is highly unlikely that either will go for Sanson, especially if Marseille stick to their high demands.
