Tottenham are looking to get one over their bitter north London rivals Arsenal after they submitted a late €30m offer for young Saint-Etienne centre-back William Saliba.

Arsenal were reportedly close to finalising a deal which would see them sign the 18-year-old before loaning him back to the Ligue 1 club next season.
