Former Gunnners: Flamini left Arsenal for free in
the summer of 2008 could join Spurs
Tottenham are set to make
a shock move to bring former
Arsenal midfielder Mathieu Flamini back to north
London.
Flamini has struggled to command a regular place with AC Milan
this season and has been asked to play out of position at
full-back.
The French midfielder is desperate to play first-team football
in a bid to keep his hopes of a World Cup place alive.
Reports in Italy suggest Tottenham have made enquiries
about the talented midfielder - with manager Harry Redknapp ready
to bring him to White Hart Lane.
Flamini produced the best form of his career playing for Arsenal
and Arsene Wenger was desperate to keep him, but he ended up
leaving on a free transfer.
Redknapp is keen to strengthen his midfield and will have money
to spend if he manages to offload David Bentley and Roman
Pavlyuchenko in the January transfer window.
Flamini has not ruled out a return to England and is determined
to show his best form playing in his favoured midfield position.
Flamini said: 'I don't want to play as a full-back, I am a
midfielder.'
What kind of attitude is this, refusing to play in other positions.
I thought he excelled at left back during the time the gunners had
defensive crisis?
