Tottenham Hotspur enthusiasts will be glued to their phones, eagerly awaiting news in the coming days.
The Spurs have been buzzing with transfer activity this week, and there is potential for further developments over the weekend.
The spotlight is decidedly on Harry Kane, as his future at N17 hangs in the balance following Bayern Munich’s final bid.
According to reports, at least three players are on the verge of signing with Tottenham.
Micky van de Ven, Alejo Veliz, and Ashley Phillips are all expected to undergo medicals at Hotspur Way in the immediate future.
Amidst these confirmed updates are potential opportunities for Tottenham with players who they might be interested in signing.
Victor Nelsson is one such figure, who has been rumored to be in talks with Tottenham by the Turkish press for some time.
A recent report from Hurriyet suggests that after securing van de Ven, Tottenham might make a move for Nelsson next.
Tottenham seems ‘resolved’ to bring Nelsson on board and might approach Galatasaray ‘over the next few days’ to negotiate.
Galatasaray, for their part, seem receptive to the idea. They are reportedly looking to bolster their cash reserves and might be willing to sell Nelsson, who is 24 years old.
Apart from welcoming several new players this summer, they haven’t offloaded many.
As such, they are now allegedly looking to capitalize on both Nelsson and Nicolo Zaniolo, another key player.
Tottenham could potentially bring Nelsson on board for a relatively measly sum of £19 million.
While Tottenham’s offer includes add-ons, Galatasaray is said to want the full £19 million paid upfront.
Our Opinion
Statement suggest that Tottenham is honing in on Micky van de Ven, and he might be among the several first-team defenders to join N17 soon.
Nelsson has been linked heavily to Spurs, and he exhibits the promise of a strong player who could be an asset for Ange Postecoglou’s team.
He was instrumental to Galatasaray’s success, helping to form the most formidable defense in the Superlig.
Thanks to Nelsson’s contributions, the Istanbul-based club secured their 23rd national league championship.
In 2020, Medium published a scouting report on the Denmark international.
He was lauded as a ‘superior ball passer’ with ‘extraordinary composure and calm, completely at ease with using both feet’.
Nelsson, often the ‘defensive spearhead’, was also praised for his ‘superlative defensive aptitude, positional consciousness, and extensive game understanding’
The player has sparked comparisons on Twitter to the famed Tottenham player Jan Vertonghen and Bayern Munich’s star Kim Min-jae.
If the rumors are true, and Tottenham can secure Nelsson for under £20 million, they should not miss this opportunity.
