Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing the former Celta Vigo midfielder Gabri Veiga.

The 22-year-old could reportedly return to European football and the North London club have now joined the race for his signature. They will face competition from Napoli and Fiorentina, as per Fichajes.

Veiga is highly rated across Europe, and he was heavily linked with the move to the Premier League before his move to Saudi Arabia. However, he ended up joining Al-Ahli. The player is now being linked with a move back to Europe, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up.

Tottenham could certainly use more quality and depth in the middle of the park, and the 22-year-old would be a quality addition. He will add control and creativity to the Tottenham midfield. He could compete with James Maddison for the starting spot. The England international has been quite inconsistent and competition for places will help both players improve.

Tottenham need more quality in the side if they want to major trophies and the 22-year-old would be a long-term investment for them. Meanwhile, the opportunity to join Tottenham will be quite exciting for the player as well. He would get to showcase his qualities in the Premier League and push for trophies with them.

It will be interesting to see if Tottenham follow up on their interest with an official proposal to sign the player. The 22-year-old is highly rated across Europe and he is likely to improve further with coaching and experience. He has all the attributes to develop into a star for Spurs.

Can the two Italian clubs beat Tottenham to his signature?

Meanwhile, the likes of Napoli and Fiorentina will be attractive destinations for the player as well. It remains to be seen whether the Italian clubs can outmuscle Spurs financially. The Premier League club might be better placed to get the deal done because of their financial capabilities.

It will be interesting to see if all Al-Ahli are willing to sanction his departure in the coming months. The Saudi Arabian club are under no pressure to sell him and any team hoping to sign him will have to come forward with a substantial offer.
