Jonathan David has been a Premier League target for some time, with Manchester United known to have considered a move in the past while also continuing to watch the Canadian’s progress in France.
The 22-year-old has made a fine start to the new campaign, scoring nine goals in 14 Ligue 1 appearances.
David, meanwhile, is also in fine form for his country, netting 22 times in just 34 international appearances.
The Lille attacker will be in action in Qatar, with Canada in Group F alongside Belgium, Croatia and Morocco.
A strong showing in the showpiece event will certainly heighten talk of a move to the Premier League.
Indeed, a recent report suggested that David is on United’s three-man shortlist to replace Cristiano Ronaldo at Old Trafford, amid Chelsea interest.
But now GiveMeSport’s Dean Jones has revealed that David ‘has been considered’ by the Gunners and Spurs.
Mikel Arteta is looking to strengthen his forward options, with Arsenal now in the midst of a Premier League title race.
The Gunners chief currently has Eddie Nketiah as backup to Gabriel Jesus, although Gabriel Martinelli can also play centrally.
Jesus made an immediate impact in north London but has now gone nine games without a goal.
