North London duo want Shakhtar midfield sensation

Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly set to renew their interest in Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Bernard during the current transfer window.

The talented attacker had been on the radar of the North London pairing last summer, until he opted for a switch to Ukraine with Shakhtar.

It is understood that the Ukrainian giants have made the Brazilian star available on a season-long loan this summer, and The Express suggests that the Gunners and Spurs will battle it out for the player's services in the remaining weeks of the transfer window.

Bernard featured in the Brazilian squad that made to the semi-finals of the World Cup this summer.
