Ben Godfrey has been linked with a move away from Atalanta in recent weeks.
The 26-year-old central defender has struggled for regular game time and he has played just 93 minutes of first-team football this season. He needs to play more often at this stage of his career and clubs like Tottenham Hotspur, Nottingham Forest and Wolves are keen on securing his signature.
According to a report from Quotidiano Sportivo, Tottenham are ahead of their Premier League rivals in the race to sign the English defender. Meanwhile, the report adds that it’s ‘London calling’ for Godfrey and a deal could materialise this month.
It will be interesting to see if Tottenham can secure his signature in the coming weeks. They need defensive depth and the 26-year-old could prove to be the ideal squad player for them. With Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven sidelined with injuries, Godfrey could form a quality partnership with Radu Dragusin.
Tottenham have looked quite vulnerable at the back during the second half of the season, and they need to tighten up at the back if they want to secure European qualification for the next season. It will be interesting to see if they can plug the weaknesses in the squad before the transfer window closes.
The 26-year-old Englishman will be keen on a return to the Premier League and he will look to get his career back on track with regular first-team football. Tottenham will be an attractive destination for the player, and it remains to be seen whether they can secure an agreement with the Italian outfit.
Although Nottingham Forest and Wolves are keen on the player, Tottenham are a more attractive destination, and they should be able to get the deal done if they are willing to pay up.
