Ollie Watkins is now just 3/1 to move to Arsenal in the upcoming transfer window
Aston Villa forward Ollie Watkins is now just 3/1 with UK Betting Sites to move to Arsenal in the summer transfer window as his fantastic form this season continued on Tuesday evening.
Watkins has been on fire this campaign and his goal in Villa's 2-1 win against Leicester on Tuesday night was his sixth consecutive away goal this campaign in a great run of form.
BetVictor now give Watkins a 25% chance of moving to Arsenal this summer and the forward could well want to make the move to the club that he supported as a boy.
Watkins said that playing for Arsenal was the "dream" for him in an interview back in 2020 and 3 years on we could well see the Gunners fan play for his team next season.

| Arsenal | 3/1 | 25% |
| Tottenham | 8/1 | 11.1% |
| Any Italian Club | 12/1 | 7.7% |

Tottenham are second favourites at 8/1 but move might be hard for Arsenal fan Watkins
Despite Watkins clear ties to Arsenal it is Tottenham who are the second favourites in the betting market to sign the forward in the summer window.
Spurs aren't exactly in need of a striker with Harry Kane still firing in the goals up front and Richarlison also in the squad but that all may change if one of the two decides to leave.
The latest betting odds though give Tottenham just an 11% chance of signing Watkins in the upcoming window with BetVictor currently making them 8/1.
