Tottenham are interested in signing Brest full-back Bradley Locko this summer.

Spurs have been quite active in the ongoing transfer window as they look to provide Ange Postecoglou with enough resources to ensure they finish inside the top four in the 2024/25 campaign.

They have already added Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall to the squad and according to Paul O Keefe, Tottenham are now considering making a move for Bradley Locko as they look to reinforce their defence.

Locko joined Brest on a short loan during the winter of 2023 before the move became permanent the following summer. He has gone from strength to strength while playing for their first team and his displays have attracted a significant amount of interest. The left-sided full-back was involved in 35 matches last season and even contributed towards three goals.

Multiple top clubs want to sign the 22-year-old and Tottenham are one of them. The North London club want to add more quality to the left side of their defence with Ben Davies already 31 and Sergio Reguilon’s place in their first-team uncertain after having spent the 2023/24 season out on loan.

While Destiny Udogie is the preferred choice at left-back, he has had his struggles with injury and they want a quality option to support him.

Locko could be an exceptional signing for the short as well as the long term. While they are considering making a move, there is nothing advanced at this stage. Given the amount of interest in him from across Europe and with three years still left on his deal, the French club could demand a premium.
