Toulouse deny any contact made over defender Issa Diop amid Arsenal and Tottenham interest

Ligue 1 side Toulouse have emphatically quashed speculation linking Arsenal and Tottenham target Issa Diop with a summer exit.

The highly-rated France under-20 star has been attracting the interest of a number of top European clubs, with RB Leipzig and Monaco also keeping tabs on him.

Diop has openly admitted that he would need to leave Toulouse eventually to fulfil his potential on the European stage, but the French club have dismissed selling him this summer.
