Arsenal and Man Utd transfer target William Saliba's agent spotted in the UK


William Saliba’s agent is in the UK, ramping up speculation he could complete a summer transfer to the Premier League.

Saliba has been linked with a move to Arsenal in recent weeks, but his agent was spotted in Manchester, suggesting United and City could also be in the running.

Saint-Etienne have slapped a £26million price tag on the head of the 18-year-old, and would ideally take the defender back on loan next season.

But Arsenal boss Unai Emery has no intentions of parting company with the youngster should the cash-strapped Gunners decide he is the right man for them.

Saliba made 16 appearances for the Ligue 1 side in his break-through season, in which Saint-Etienne finished fourth.

His agent Djibril Niang is obviously well aware of the transfer interest in his client, and has used Instagram to ramp up speculation.

Niang appeared to hint that Saliba could sign for United or City instead of Arsenal after he uploaded a picture of himself at the Ivy Asia in Manchester.

Arsenal Invincible Lauren recently hailed the teenager in an interview with AmericanGambler.com.

“Yes, he looks a very good player,” said Lauren. “Strong, tall, can come out of the back with the ball and an international for France.

“He reads the game very well, which is important for a player at the back, you have to anticipate and he looks very good at just 18, so the future is bright!”
