Arsenal and Spurs Battle for Stuttgart Star Millot

By on March 23, 2025

With the summer transfer window approaching, clubs are busy preparing lists of players to strengthen their squads.

Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly among the clubs interested in Stuttgart midfielder Enzo Millot according to Football.London .

The 22-year-old Frenchman has caught the eye of several clubs, including Liverpool, but reports suggest that Arsenal are making quiet moves to sign him.

Tottenham are also keen on getting Millot as they look to add new options in midfield after struggling with injuries this season.

Millot has been a key player in the Bundesliga since joining Stuttgart from Monaco in 2021 for about £1.3 million.

This season, he scored eight goals and made seven assists, making it his best season.

His impressive form has made him one of the most wanted midfielders ahead of the summer window.

The French midfielder played an essential role in Stuttgart’s unexpected second-place finish last season.

He started 27 league games, showing his consistency and quality in midfield.

Arsenal show interest amid Zubimendi talks

Arsenal are reportedly in advanced talks to sign Spanish midfielder Martin Zubimendi.

The club is planning for Thomas Partey and Jorginho to exit at the end of the season. Despite their focus on Zubimendi, the Gunners are still watching Millot.

Tottenham will face a challenging task in bringing Millot to North London. The lack of Champions League football could make it harder for them compared to Arsenal.

Spurs need fresh options in midfield, and Millot seems like a good fit as a young, energetic player who can add creativity to the team.

Millot, who has a release clause of £16.7 million as per the report, knows about the growing interest in him.

Speaking during a press conference while on international duty, he admitted his hopes of moving on. “Of course, that’s a goal I have set for myself,” he said. However, he also spoke highly of Stuttgart, saying, “I would be happy to remain with Stuttgart because of the club’s commitment to developing young players like myself.”

Meanwhile, Liverpool and Chelsea are also monitoring the situation. Both clubs showed interest in Millot back in January, and more teams might join the race as the window gets closer.

Tottenham’s manager, Ange Postecoglou, knows his side needs reinforcements after a disappointing season.

Midfield has been a problem area for Spurs, and Millot could be the answer they are looking for.

However, Arsenal’s quick approach might give them the edge in the race for his signature.
