Marcus Edwards reportedly wants to move to the Premier League this summer amid interest from Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur.
According to a report by Portuguese outlet O Jogo, Marcus Edwards is the subject of interest from Arsenal. Tottenham Hotspur will also look to re-sign the 25-year-old in the summer transfer window. Meanwhile, Sporting CP will likely look to cash in on him in the coming weeks, with the attacker eager to move to the Premier League.
Marcus Edwards and his journey at Sporting CP
Marcus Edwards has found a stable footing in his career since joining Sporting CP from Vitoria Guimaraes in January 2022. A native of London, the Englishman graduated from the Tottenham Hotspur youth division but could not establish a foothold in the first-team squad at the North London club.
The 25-year-old has turned out 110 times thus far for Sporting CP, chipping in with 21 goals and 26 assists. The player was a part of the squad that won the 2023/24 Liga Portugal title but fell in stature this season. Meanwhile, Edwards faces an uncertain future at the Jose Alvalade Stadium, with Ruben Amorim seemingly read to sanction his sale.
A move to the Premier League might be on the cards, with the latest report claiming he wants to return to England in the summer transfer window. The English winger does not have a shortage of suitors pursuing him, with Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur vying for his signature.
Premier League move on the horizon?
Arsenal’s interest in Marcus Edwards is understandable. Mikel Arteta wants two top-notch options for every position and is eager to land a wide attacker in the summer transfer window. The Sporting CP winger has thus emerged as a viable target for Arsenal.
As for Tottenham Hotspur, the North London club might part ways with Manor Solomon a year after signing him. In addition, Richarlison faces an uncertain future at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. So, Edwards is an option worth considering, with the latest update boosting their prospects.
Edwards wants to return to England in the summer transfer window, and Arsenal and Tottenham might fancy their prospects to secure his services. It will be interesting to see if the 25-year-old English winger joins a Premier League club in the summer transfer window.
