Arsenal and Tottenham have both made contact with Marseille over a possible swoop for young winger Isaac Lihadji.
According to Foot Mercato, relayed in an article by The Boot Room, both north London heavyweights are interested in the 17-year-old, along with giants from Germany, Italy and Spain.
Lihadji has made two Ligue 1 appearances from the bench this season and is rated very highly by everyone at Marseille.
He starred at the recent Under-17 World Cup, scoring three times as France finished third.
And it appears as if those displays in Brazil have caught the eye of both the Gunners and Spurs, who could now battle it out for his services.

Arsenal have had recent success in bringing unknown teenagers to the Emirates over the past 18 months with Matteo Guendouzi and Gabriel Martinelli impressing in north London.
Lihadji might not be ready for a place in the first-team straight away should Arsenal beat Spurs to his signature, but it looks as if the Gunners are making the first steps regarding a possible deal.
