Dortmund and Manchester United vie for Arsenal talent Heaven!

The Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund shows interest in Ayden Heaven, an 18-year-old central defender from Arsenal. Heaven currently has a contract with Arsenal, which is valid until the end of the season, and could possibly switch to Dortmund in winter. Its market value is estimated at 300,000 euros. A summer transfer could be done free of charge, while a winter transfer would require a low transfer fee. Ajax Amsterdam has also expressed interest in Heaven who is looking for more time and has so far played mainly for the U21 of Arsenal.

like Merkur has already gained first experience in the professional area under coach Mikel Arteta. Dortmund is currently looking for reinforcements in defense because it has shown weaknesses in the current season. A move to Dortmund could offer Heaven the opportunity to establish themselves in one of the top league in Europe and learn from experienced players.

other interested parties for Ayden Heaven

In addition to the interest of Borussia Dortmund, there is also the interest of Manchester United an Ayden Heaven. According to Yahoo Sports , the recruitment strategy from Manchester United focuses on discovering emerging talent instead of signing big names. The last committed players include Samuel Lusale, Sekou Kone and Chido Obi, a former Arsenal player.

Heaven has already announced Arsenal that he rejects the club's attempts to extend his contract. His current contract is valid until 2025, but despite two offers - one last year and one when he became 18 - he did not sign a professional contract. In addition to Manchester United, other clubs such as Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City and Newcastle United also observe the situation. Abroad, Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen, Napoli and Marseille showed interest in the talented defender.

Arsenal's coach Mikel Areta praised Heaven's talent, but his limited possible uses in the first team could tempt him to leave the club, similar to Chido Obi. Heaven, which is left -footed, can play both as a left -back and as a left wing, which makes it particularly attractive to potential interested parties.
