Even though Manchester City are currently leading the race for Southampton’s Harrison Miles, Arsenal is not out of the running. According to Football Insider, Arsenal is holding out hope that they may sign the teenage prodigy. With the adolescent on the verge of making a major professional choice, Southampton has acknowledged that Miles will most likely join a Premier League powerhouse.
An outstanding product of Southampton’s illustrious system, Miles has shown promising early career play for the Under-18 squad. Many thought he would be moving up the ranks to the Under-21s or maybe the senior team in no time. Southampton wanted to retain Miles and help him grow because of their reputation for fostering exceptional talent. But Miles has decided to go elsewhere for possibilities, and he’s been getting interest from major teams.
Arsenal Will Still Want To Sign This 15-year-old English Wonderkid
Among the clubs interested in signing Miles, Manchester City sees him as an asset to their youth program and is presently in the lead. Even though they have a reputation for focusing heavily on youthful talent acquisition, City has a number of other possibilities in their sights as well. Many have speculated for days that City will be the team to sign Miles. But now that Arsenal has made a serious offer, the 15-year-old must decide between City.
Both Arsenal and Manchester City have always been Premier League rivals, and now they’re competing for Miles. Chelsea and Guardiola’s squad have both set aside funds specifically for the academy. The Gunners are the third English team to follow this strategy as of late. This move is part of a larger strategy to strengthen their young team and increase their chances of competing for the best academy players.
Arsenal’s dedication to compete for top youth talent is evident in their investment in their academy. Manchester City and them are battling for Miles since they have a substantial budget for young acquisitions. After considering offers from both teams, the 15-year-old must now make a pivotal choice about his future.

For PSG Talk, journalist Robin Bairner discussed the future of the French defender.
Bairner said that Saliba is pivotal to Arsenal’s Mikel Arteta’s plan. Bairner does not believe Saliba will sign with PSG, one of the two teams to which he has been connected.

The Gunners are aware they will need him in their pursuit of the Premier League and, maybe, the Champions League, according to Bairner.
