Both London clubs are said to have regularly scouted Matanovic in person during the early stages of the current season.

The Croatian international likely impressed with his performances, having scored six goals and provided two assists in seven games.

Matanovic himself is reportedly open to a move to the Premier League, with a reported €58million transfer fee is being discussed.

Matanovic only joined Freiburg last summer for €6.7million, and remains on a long-term contract with the Bundesliga club.
