Arsenal to fight north London rivals for Dutch World Cup defender
Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur could be set to battle it out for the signing of Ajax and Netherlands centre-back Joel Veltman, according to the Daily Mirror.
The 22-year-old has been one of the most impressive young defenders in the Eredivisie in recent times, earning himself a call-up to Louis van Gaal’s squad for this summer’s World Cup, though he has only made one substitute appearance so far.
With Thomas Vermaelen linked strongly with a move to Manchester United, it could be that Arsenal are eyeing Veltman as a replacement at the back.
