Arsenal and Wolves are seemingly free to battle it out for Emmanuel Dennis after his manager Phillipe Clement admitted the striker will move on this summer.

The 22-year-old has been in fine form for Club Brugge this season. The young forward has scored nine goals in total but his performances overall have been eye-catching.

And comments from Clement via Belgian outlet, Voetbalkrant, suggest that his manager is resigned to losing him.

“It is very likely that Dennis will leave. He can also count on a lot of interest. It is time for him to take a new step,” Clement said. 

Those comments will be of interest to a number of Premier League sides, namely Wolves and Arsenal, who have been linked with a £22m move for the striker.

A number of other English sides, including Sheffield United and Everton, are also thought to have watched Dennis.

However, Arsenal and Wolves remain the ones most keen it appears. Both clubs could well pursue a deal given the acceptance of his current club that their man will walk away from them this summer.

Dennis caught the eye earlier this season with a two-goal display against Real Madrid in the Champions League.

If ever there was a ‘come and get him’ plea from a manager, this was it.

Clubs all around Europe will be looking to cash in on some of their star players as they look to balance the books amid the global uncertainty in the game at the moment.

Arsenal and Wolves, then, should move now for Dennis before they are embroiled in a massive transfer scramble.

With so many clubs previously interested in Dennis, the price will only go up and up. At £22m or less, he could be a steal for both the Gunners and Wolves.
