Arsenal will be scouting Club Brugge wonderkid Antonio Nusa this week as they consider teaming him up with Martin Odegaard.
Antonio Nusa will be scouted by Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United this week having shown big potential with Club Brugge.
That is according to Het Nieuwsblad reporter Pieter-Jan Calcoen, who reports that a number of scouts will be watching Nusa this week.
Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal, PSV Eindhoven and Borussia Dortmund will also be in attendance with
Arsenal are in action against PSV tonight and will seemingly have scouts looking into potential signings on Thursday.
Club Brugge kick off their Europa Conference League campaign against Besiktas with Nusa expected to play a starring role in front of Arsenal scouts.
Who is Arsenal target Antonio Nusa?
Nusa hails from Norway and started in the youth ranks with hometown club Langhus.
Stabaek pounced for Nusa in 2018 and brought him up into the first team, featuring 13 times with three goals to his name.
Nusa showed huge potential in Norway and Club Brugge managed to secure his signature on deadline day back in August 2021.
An exciting winger, Nusa has now bagged five goals and four assists in 47 games for Club Brugge, so it’s fair to say his end product could improve.
Still, Nusa – who qualified to play for Nigeria – has already earned two Norway caps and looks destined for many, many more at just 18.
Nusa already a fan of Martin Odegaard
Nusa excelled in the international break, bagging two assists in Norway’s 2-1 win over Georgia as he set up both Erling Haaland and Martin Odegaard for goals.
TV2 in Norway hailed Nusa as a ‘fantastic football player’ after that performance with hype building over there.
Nusa also told TV2 that he loves playing with Arsenal star Odegaard, calling the experience ‘fun’ in comments which may leave the Gunners hopeful of convincing him to join.
The prospect of teaming up with Odegaard at club level as well as on the international stage may well appeal to the exciting teenager.
Interest from Chelsea and Manchester United may complicate things but Arsenal could make their move if Nusa impresses against Besiktas.
