Arsenal and Manchester United are interested in signing Hertha BSC’s highly-rated midfielder Lennart Eichhorn.
The player could be available for a transfer fee of around £10.5m, with two English clubs potentially funding the deal. They will face competition from some of the top clubs across Europe. According to TEAMtalk, Tottenham and Brighton are interested in the player.
The 16-year-old midfielder is highly rated and has a great future. A move to the Premier League could be ideal for him. Arsenal and Manchester United are successful in developing young players and they could play a key role in his development.
Both clubs aim to build strong teams for the future and signing the best young players would be a step in the right direction. It will be interesting to see which of the two clubs can conclude a contract.
Eichhorn is likely to be attracted to the idea of joining the biggest club in the world. However, you need to choose your next destination carefully. He should only join a club where he will have enough opportunities and a clear path to the first team.
The reported asking price is quite reasonable, and he could be a bargain for most teams. Eichhorn is already a youth international with Germany and wants to establish himself as a key player at the highest level. Joining a big club could unlock his true potential.
He has been described as a player with a “rare blend of street smarts and sophistication.”
There is no doubt that he would be an attractive investment for both English clubs. Where he ends up remains to be seen.
