Antonio Nusa is one of those footballers worth betting on before his price skyrockets. The Norwegian winger, at 21 years old, has a market valuation close to 45 million euros and is having a breakthrough season at RB Leipzig. His performance has already attracted the interest of Arsenal, but his progression suggests that in two seasons, he could cost nearly double.

Nusa has six goals and eight assists in 15 matches during the 2026-27 season. These numbers support his growth and explain why several Premier League clubs have begun to consider signing him. Our opinion is clear: a big team should try to get ahead of his definitive explosion.

 Antonio Nusa, a market opportunity for Europe's giants

There are players who need several seasons to demonstrate that they can compete at the elite level, and others who start showing signs very early. Nusa belongs to the second group. His ability to outmaneuver opponents, accelerate transitions, and create opportunities from the flanks makes him a winger with the resources to make a difference.

His evolution in Germany is particularly significant. After arriving from Club Brugge in 2024 for approximately 21 million euros, the Norwegian international has increased his offensive influence and has become one of Leipzig's main references.

At just 21 years old, he still has room to improve aspects such as consistency and decision-making in the final third. Precisely because of this, we believe that his valuation of 45 million euros represents an interesting opportunity for any financially capable team.

This is not about a player needing to prove he has talent, but rather a player who must take the next step to turn that potential into consistent performance at the highest level.

Arsenal is already moving for Nusa, but Leipzig sets conditions

Arsenal is one of the clubs showing the most interest in the winger. Mikel Arteta is looking for alternatives to strengthen the flanks and believes the Norwegian can provide imbalance, depth, and the ability to play on both sides.

According to information published by TEAMtalk and reported by FootballTransfers on November 14, the Londoners have intensified their monitoring of the player and have already had preliminary talks with his circle. However, Leipzig does not intend to facilitate his exit in January. Nusa's contract extends until June 2029, and the German team is in a favorable negotiating position.

Estimates about his potential transfer for the summer of 2027 currently range between 70 and 90 million euros, a figure that could increase if he maintains his performance throughout the rest of the season. Therefore, the 45 million represents a valuation reference, not the price currently demanded by his club.

Nusa could cost double in two seasons

Our bet on Nusa is related to the timing of his career. At 21 years old, with experience in the Bundesliga and international presence with Norway, he has the conditions to become one of the most sought-after wingers in Europe.

If he manages to transfer his current figures to a more demanding competition and maintains his progression, it would not be surprising if his price reached 90 million euros in the coming years. It is a projection, not a guarantee, but his evolution justifies that big teams start to seriously consider his signing. The Norwegian needs to make the leap to a team that regularly competes for titles and allows him to develop his football in high-pressure scenarios. Arsenal appears to be a particularly interesting destination given Mikel Arteta's context, although other big clubs should also evaluate his situation.

Antonio Nusa is an investment for both now and the future. Paying 45 million for his talent would be a very interesting bet; waiting for him to fully explode may require spending double. The market still offers an opportunity to get ahead, even though Leipzig is already working to turn his progression into a multimillion-euro sale.
