According to a report from TEAMtalk, both Premier League clubs have been monitoring the 20-year-old’s performances this season, with Chelsea, Manchester City and Aston Villa also tracking his progress.

The Gunners could view the Algerian international as a potential addition to their midfield options. His ability to operate in advanced areas and create opportunities could make him an attractive option for Mikel Arteta’s side.
Tottenham, meanwhile, are also assessing the midfielder as they look to strengthen their attacking options. Maza’s ability to play centrally or wide could give them greater flexibility in the final third.
The 20-year-old has already contributed a goal and an assist for Leverkusen this season, underlining his growing influence in the Bundesliga.
