Etienne Capoue clears way for Arsenal or Tottenham move by admitting he wants to quit Toulouse
Arsenal and Tottenham target Etienne Capoue has admitted he will be looking to leave Toulouse this summer.
The 24-year-old French international midfielder, who has played 150 times for the Ligue 1 club since making his debut in 2007, has also been linked with Paris St Germain and AC Milan.
Toulouse coach Alain Casanova is hopeful Capoue will stay at the club but the player himself gave no encouragement when speaking today.
If he (Casanova) wants to keep me, that is good, Capoue told LEquipe.
That says that he counts on me, that he is happy with me.
But it is football. I feel it is the moment to leave, to play in big competitions.
