Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal target Serhou Guirassy will be sold by Amiens this summer, according to Sky Sports.

Guirassy’s agents are said to be working hard to get him a move, with Amiens keen to cash in on the 24-year-old.

The Daily Mail claimed that Arsenal were interested in him in May, while Tottenham were linked in the same month by Le10 Sport.

Guirassy is believed to be keen on a move to the Premier League, although it remains to be seen whether Arsenal or Tottenham will step up their interest in the powerful forward now that he is up for sale.

In truth the striker would likely be a back-up choice at either Arsenal or Tottenham, if he was to make the move to North London.

Guirassy scored nine goals in 23 appearances in Ligue 1 last campaign, and his form has attracted the attention of a number of sides in England.

Guirassy wouldn’t be of the quality required to displace Harry Kane at Tottenham, but he would at least provide Jose Mourinho with another option to use up-front.

Guirassy could also be a useful addition at Arsenal, as his powerful style may present a different option to the type of forwards Mikel Arteta currently has in his squad.

Le10 Sport say that Guirassy is valued at £17.5 million by Amiens.
