Djibril Sidibe has been one of the mainstays in the defence for his current team AS Monaco. His towering presence in the right side of the defence for the French team helped them in clinching the title of the champions of French Ligue 1 for the recently concluded season.
The French right back has attracted a lot of interests from a number of teams from all over Europe, including the Premier League. Big name clubs like Manchester City, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur have made their intentions clear to bag the prized player for the next season in order to strengthen their backline.
The 24-year-old right-back has been one of the best defenders in the biggest European club competition, the UEFA Champions League this season, and has proved his worth via his brilliant display of strong physical presence and clean tackles. He has been able to contain a number of world class strikers throughout the tournament and is now widely recognised as one of the most highly rated defenders in all over Europe.
Monaco brought in the French youngster from Lille last summer. He started to show his mettle in the jersey of his new club and soon became an integral part of the French team. He has played a pivotal role in the defence of the French Ligue 1 side and helped them to lift the trophy for the season.
Tottenham also had one of their best seasons in the recent past, finishing at number two in the Premier League table. They also have some of the best goal scorers in their world, including club captain Harry Kane, who has been awarded the Golden Boot for being the highest scorer for consecutive two seasons. Dele Alli and Heung-Min Son have also played a very important role for their club and have been able to make the difference between their club and their rivals.
However, their coach Mauricio Pochettino is not ready to be overjoyed with the success and wants to build a side that can win silverware in the forthcoming season. The Argentine mastermind has been eyeing the French right back to solidify his backline and might make a bid to bag him in the summer. And also with the future of Walker unclear, Pochettino would be looking to have his backup ready in case he leaves.
The Monaco defender has also attracted interests from teams like Arsenal and Manchester City as well, both having dire needs to rebuild their side for the next season.
