Regardless of how Tottenham Hotspur’s season pans out, it would be wise for them to start working on their summer transfer business already.
Firstly, because Tottenham have suffered an unprecedented injury crisis this campaign and it might be time for them to build a bigger squad.
Secondly, due to the fact that the Lilywhites have had an utterly disappointing season as they sit in 12th place in the Premier League as standards must be raised within N17.
Thirdly, keeping in mind that Ange Postecoglou’s job at Tottenham is safe until the end of the season and considering Spurs have taken such a definitive stance about his future, they have every reason to start assessing potential signings who would fit the Australian’s signature style of play.
Based on recent sports, it looks like the North Londoners mean business.
Sources told TBR Football that Tottenham are the frontrunners to sign Eberechi Eze in the summer — who fits the profile of the marquee signing they need to liven up their attack in particular.
Tottenham scouted Manchester United and Arsenal target Jobe Bellingham
Mathys Tel could sign permanently for Tottenham as well as he is loving life at Spurs as well as in London.
In Eze and Tel, Ange Postecoglou could have the chance to sign two extremely gifted attackers who are ready to reach the next level themselves and elevate Tottenham as a whole long their journey.
Another players who fits the bill of a potential superstar is Jobe Bellingham, who Tottenham scouted during Sunderland’s 2-1 defeat against Leeds United — as reported by the Chronicle Live.
Crystal Palace, who tried to sign Jobe also sent scouts to watch the 19-year-old in action alongside attendees at Elland Road from other clubs.
Manchester United and Arsenal scouted Jobe as well on deadline day, who has become one of England’s most sought-after players.
Jobe has been compared to Jude Bellingham as the wonderkid has a similar playing style to his older brother, being immensely technically gifted, a workhorse as well as a leader on the pitch.
The Sunderland player who impressed Tottenham more than Bellingham
The Stourbridge-born wonderkid has played a crucial role for Sunderland this season, amassing four goals and three assists while starting 29 games in the Championship.
On paper, the numbers might not jump off the page as such but it is important to remember that Jobe has played in every position across the midfield three for the Black Cats this campaign — mostly playing as a number six.
However, the report has mentioned that it was Wilson Isidor’s display that impressed Tottenham and Crystal Palace’s scouts alongside other the other club representatives.
All the scouts had visited Leeds to scout various Sunderland players as they have one of the most talented teams in the Championship, which also features teenage sensation Chris Rigg.
But Isidor, who is a number nine by trade stood out and even scored a goal.
With 12 goals to his name in the Championship this season, perhaps the 24-year-old’s impressive season might prompt Spurs to view him as potential competition for Dominic Solanke.
