Arsenal and Liverpool could be set for a January tug of war as they both rekindle their interest in Klaas-Jan Huntelaar.

Both clubs have been linked with the striker in the past and with the Schalke man thought to be available for around £3m when the transfer window opens, the duo could finally make their moves.

The Dutch international is out of contract at the end of the season and the Bundesliga side could opt to cut their losses and ensure they get some money for him in the New Year.

According to the Express, Tottenham are also keen on the 31-year-old Holland international, who is thought to be interested in finally moving to the Premier League.

The former Real Madrid man has netted four goals in eight appearances so far this term, including the equaliser in his side's Champions League opener against Chelsea last month.

Both Arsenal and Liverpool find themselves much further adrift in the Premier League than they would like after their opening seven matches, sitting eighth and ninth respectively, while Spurs are just a point ahead in sixth.

And with both Arsenal and Liverpool having been hit with injuries to their front players already this campaign, both Arsene Wenger and Brendan Rodgers could turn to Huntelaar to bolster their ranks in January.
