Arsenal and Manchester City are set to compete with Tottenham Hotspur for the signing of Semih Kilicsoy, as reported by Sabah via SportWitness. The 18-year-old talent from Turkey has caught the attention of the English clubs, who are ready to vie for his services.
Kilicsoy has emerged through the ranks at Besiktas and made his way into the first team for the 2023/24 season. Despite his young age, he has already made an impact, featuring in 25 matches and scoring 10 goals in under 1400 minutes of play. His impressive performances have attracted interest from various clubs across Europe, leading to a potential bidding war for his signature.
While Besiktas recently secured him with a new contract, the club is open to negotiations for his departure, albeit for a substantial fee. They are hoping for multiple clubs to enter the race to maximize profits from his sale. Tottenham Hotspur, in search of a Harry Kane replacement, see Kilicsoy as a promising young forward who fits their criteria.
However, Spurs will have to contend with Manchester City and Arsenal, both of whom have recently joined the pursuit. Scouts from both clubs were spotted watching Kilicsoy in action against Galatasaray, showing their interest in the budding talent. While City may not be in urgent need of a striker, they see Kilicsoy as a long-term investment to enhance their squad.
On the other hand, Arsenal’s manager, Mikel Arteta, is keen on adding a new striker to his team. While he usually prefers experienced players, Kilicsoy’s potential to become a future star makes him an enticing prospect for the Gunners. The competition for Kilicsoy’s signature is heating up, with Besiktas waiting for a competitive bidding war to unfold to secure the best deal for the talented young forward.
