Reported Spurs and Everton target, Arkadiusz Milik, is still open to a move to a big club, despite moving to Marseille in the January window.

Speaking to Goal, the Polish forward said that while his focus for now is helping Marseille and doing well in France, he remains keen on playing for the biggest clubs possible.

“I want to play in the biggest clubs. We’ll see. For now, I want to show myself here, and I want to be remembered in Marseille. I want the fans to remember my name,” Milik said.

His comments won’t exactly endear himself to the Marseille faithful straight away. It sounds like Milik is simply using the French side as a stepping stone, which is not ideal in anyones book.

Both Everton and Spurs were linked with Milik heading into the January window. AS claimed at the back end of December that the Premier League duo were in the mix for the striker, along with Atletico Madrid.

Milik, then, could well wind up in England after all if his comments here are anything to go by.

Given the amount of talk for the months leading up to January and yet still nothing happened, you’d have to assume this one is dead in the water for the Toffees and Spurs.

Yes, both clubs probably do need another forward but Milik might not be the one.

Of course, if he fires in the goals for Marseille, it could well perk their interest again. But for now, Ancelotti and Mourinho have probably moved on to other targets.
