Spurs hit Arsenal's midfield plans: MVila, Niang

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger may be caught napping with Tottenham plotting to steal Yann M'Vila and M'Baye Niang from under his nose.

French club Rennes confirmed they have had an offer for the 22-year-old from Spurs for the midfielder, according to the Daily Mail.

Speaking after Rennes defeat to Lyon on Saturday, club chairman Frederic de Saint-Serni, said: "He has a concrete offer from England."

M'Vila revealed afterwards: "I am happy. I'm not complaining and I'm playing. As long as I'm at Rennes, I will be available to the manager.

"I'm not getting worked up over that (transfer speculation). I could very well spend one more season (at Rennes)."

Tottenham are also confident of beating Arsenal and AC Milan to Caen's striker Niang, 17, with a £6m offer.

Arsenal could suffer a treble blow with Barcelona preparing to offer £11m for midfielder Alex Song this week.
 
Meanwhile, Nicklas Bendtner has also been linked with a swap for AC Milan's Philippe Mexes.
