As per Christian Falk, Zakaria has attracted interest from the aforementioned three Premier League clubs who are keen on signing him this summer.
Arsenal have Granit Xhaka, Mohamed Elneny, Albert Sambi Lokonga and Thomas Partey to play in the CDM role. But Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta reportedly wants to add another defensive midfielder.
Tottenham have signed Bryan Gil this summer but are looking to add more players to their midfield department. Nuno Espirito Santo is reportedly looking to get a defensive midfielder to partner with Pierre-Emile Højbjerg.
Rafa Benitez has taken over at Everton and he wants the club to sign a midfielder who can dominate physically. The Spaniard has Allan and Abdoulaye Doucouré in his squad but is keen on bringing in a fresh face.
Chelsea and Manchester City were interested in Arsenal target
Christian Falk has revealed Chelsea and Manchester City were looking to sign Arsenal target Denis Zakaria last summer. However, the two clubs decided not to go ahead with the move as the price they were quoted was too high. He said:
Chelsea have signed Marcus Bettinelli on a free transfer and are close to signing Romelu Lukaku. Manchester City have got Jack Grealish, while reports suggest they could be closing in on Harry Kane too.
