Chris Perkins has reportedly left Tottenham and is already in talks over a move to north London rivals Arsenal.
In a somewhat surprise development, it seems Perkins is ready to make the move to Spurs’ most fierce rivals and take on a similar role to the one he held before, according to the Daily Mail.
Perkins previously made a name for himself as a top recruiter of young talent in spells at Derby County and Everton, and it looks like he could be a smart addition to the team at the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal are a club very much on the up at the moment, so it makes sense that they’re becoming seen as the place to be for both players, coaches and other club officials.
The Gunners have a top class academy, and Perkins could be a good fit to help them continue to identify the best young players to join.
Homegrown stars like Bukayo Saka, Eddie Nketiah and Emile Smith Rowe have been key members of the Arsenal squad in recent times, and fans will hope there’ll be more to come in the next few years.
WHAT ANOTHER JUDAS !
Lol
The question should be – why? He probably sees no future at spurs as we seem incapable of bringing top class players through the academy, unlike ar?enal.
Let him go he can’t be that good at his job as our recuirtment n youth recuirtment is shocking really shocking proves there to be seen
LOL, he’s done bugger all at Spurs, lets hope Arsoles take him.
Attracting young talent was his job but he was faced with an impossible challenge when there’s no hope of trophies. Young players are hungry and ambitious and that’s the opposite of Tottenham mentality.
Like rats jumping a sinking ship
