ARSENAL defender Rob Holding is being eyed up by Luton but they face competition from two La Liga sides, according to reports.<\/p>\n
Holding, 27, is way down the pecking order at the Emirate and has not featured yet this season.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He only has one year left on his deal and boss Mikel Arteta is ready to let him leave this summer.<\/p>\n
Daily Mail has claimed new boys Luton are interested after their move for Newcastle's Issac Hayden has stalled. <\/p>\n
They join Premier League rivals Wolves and Crystal Palace who are both said to have been set on the centre-back. <\/p>\n
But Holding could be heading abroad with a pair of Spanish sides keen, according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He claims Mallorca and Sevilla have both approached the Gunners to sound out a deal. <\/p>\n
And Sevilla would have the added sway of offering Champions League football.<\/p>\n
Holding made 14 appearances in the league last season but will struggle even more for game time this season after the arrivals of Jurrien Timber and\u00a0Declan Rice.<\/p>\n
He joined the Gunners in 2016 for an initial fee of \u00a32million from Bolton.<\/p>\n
