Tottenham chasing Ben Arfa

There are reports from France this morning that Hatem Ben Arfa is a target for Tottenham coach Harry Redknapp. If reports are to be believed, Spurs will make a bid of £9 million for the player.

The Marseille winger had a well-publicised fall out with Didier Deschamps, the coach of L'OM.

It is understood Ben Arfa is desperate to leave the club now, and the Premiership is his preferred destination.

Ben Arfa nearly signed for Arsenal two years ago, but the Gunners opted for Samir Nasri instead.
