Maitland-Niles made a total of 20 Premier League appearances for Arsenal in the 2019/20 season in which he earned himself an uninspiring season rating of 6.63/10 for the campaign (per WhoScored).
This must be a windup

Now that this latest piece of transfer news has been doing the rounds on Twitter, this paved the way for a lot of Spurs fans to share their thoughts on this potential move for Maitland-Niles.
There was one Spurs fan responding to the post who was quite positive about this potential move and was not as quick to dismiss the rumour as others were.
Okay I’m going to say it…
Yes please; he can play RB, RWB, RM and as shown in the FA Cup Final (which he helped win) he can also play LB. Whilst doesn’t create as many assists, he can defend.
