Arsenal, Spurs force Bayer Leverkusen to set Hincapie sale price

Ecuador's 20-year-old defender Piero Hincapie is a target for Arsenal and Tottenham.

The North London rivals are already looking towards January and have the Bayer Leverkusen star in their sights.

Hincapie only arrived in Germany in the summer of 2021 from South American club Talleres de Cordoba.

But his rapid progression for club and country has seen him attract the attention of some of Europe's top clubs.

He has already racked up 24 caps for Ecuador, three of which came at the World Cup.

Bayer are reluctant to sell and The Sun says they've now slapped a €40m price-tag on Hincapie in reaction to the interest of Arsenal and Spurs.
