Premier League rivals Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are among the most active teams in the transfer market as both teams have been marred by injuries this season. A player who has appeared on both the north London clubs’ radars is FC Nordsjaelland left-back Daniel Svensson, who could reportedly be available for as little as £5m.
This is as per reports from TBR Football chief correspondent Graeme Bailey, who earlier reported ahead of the January window that the Gunners and Spurs have been keeping tabs on Svensson. The 22-year-old Swede has made 19 appearances across competitions for Nordsjaelland, providing two assists and also picking up two bookings.
Other Premier League clubs such as Liverpool, Manchester City, Aston Villa and Brentford are also said to be keen on the player and are closely monitoring his progress. Elsewhere, Sky Germany has reported that Bundesliga outfit RB Leipzig also maintain a keen interest in acquiring Svensson’s services.
With so many potential suitors circling around the player and FC Nordsjaelland, it is certain he will depart them sooner or later.
FC Nordsjaelland teammate all-praise for Daniel Svensson
Daniel Svensson’s progress has not just impressed people from outside the club, but has also made a big impact on his teammates. Jeppe Tverskov recent spoke to Tipsbladet, praising Svensson and his all-round footballing abilities. He said,
“It is quite unique to be able to do so many things as a footballer. And luckily for him, he is extremely good at all those things. Sometimes, you see that if you can do a bit of everything, you end up being a reserve. But Svensson doesn’t because he is so good. He is a machine. He has a strong body and can run a lot.”
Meanwhile, football statistics and analysis website WhoScored likened the player to Real Madrid ace Eduardo Camavinga. Their article read:
“Camavinga is a very important player for club and country with his ability to play left-back. Svensson is similar in that regard. The Swede is able to operate in central midfield, defensive midfield, and at left-back, with his positional adaptability part of the reason why he has cropped up on Liverpool’s radar.”
