As the summer of comings and goings approaches, Newcastle United‘s French sensation is one of the first to be linked with a move to Tottenham.

I’m not sure if it’s just me, but there always seems to be high-intensity transfer rumors surrounding Tottenham’s summer. This summer is bound to be full of Gareth Bale rumors. He could sign a new contract, buy a new house, commit his future to the club or even nail himself to the stadium and there’d still be rumors about him joining Real Madrid.

And if there’s any truth in this Ben Arfa rumor, it might not go away too quickly.

The deal makes sense. Tottenham do require a spectacular player in advanced positions to cause damage, and Arfa is highly capable of that. He’s one of the most exciting players in the league. An old-fashioned wide man who fearlessly takes his opponents on, and often unleashes the most stunning shots from distance.

Throughout his career, Arfa has been criticized for his lack of discipline. At times, he doesn’t look too interested. But on his day, he’ll give any winger a run for his money. Whether he and Newcastle will be willing to part is another matter, obviously. But the deal makes sense. Arfa is 26, and a player with his ability and drive should be playing European football.

This promises to be an exciting transfer window for Tottenham fans. Well, if they can finish in the top four anyway. If they can’t, it may become a torturous one.
