Tottenham Hotspur are considering taking advantage of a rival Premier League club’s financial situation and signing one of their key players.
Ange Postecoglou has done a brilliant job since taking the Spurs job, but he knows that without proper strengthening in the summer, his side will struggle to reach the next level.
Tottenham need reinforcements in plenty of positions, but central midfield is one area they may be prioritising. They have been linked with plenty of players who play in the middle of the park over the last few months.
Now, another name has come out of the rumour mill, and the player’s club could be forced to sell him in the upcoming summer transfer window. No, we’re not talking about Chelsea and Conor Gallagher.
Tottenham keeping tabs on Nottingham Forest player
Nottingham Forest were punished and docked four points for breaching the Premier League‘s profit and sustainability rules.
The Reds dropped down to 18th in the table, and there are now rumours that they could be forced to sell a few of their players to balance the books.
Reports have claimed that Murillo could be sold by Forest this summer, and Liverpool, Chelsea and Newcastle have all been linked with his services.
Another player who could become a wanted man is Morgan Gibbs-White.
GiveMeSport have now claimed that a number of Premier League clubs are keeping tabs on the talented English midfielder, including Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham.
Spurs have been linked with Gibbs-White in the past, which suggests they are admirers.
The report claims that if Nottingham Forest are forced to sell their key players, Gibbs-White could be sacrificed, and he could well end up reuniting with Brennan Johnson at Spurs.
Morgan Gibbs-White has been compared to a former Arsenal star
If there’s one thing Tottenham fans dislike, it’s Arsenal.
The two North London clubs share a fierce rivalry, but even the strongest Spurs fans will agree that Arsenal have had some stunning footballers over the years.
One such player was Cesc Fabregas, and Tottenham target Morgan Gibbs-White’s passing once reminded Danny Murphy of the former Arsenal captain.
The pundit said back in 2018: “He’s going to be special. I can’t help but get excited about him. He’s got the lot – he’s quick, a great passer of the ball. For someone so young, you can see he has confidence matched with a work ethic.
“He glides past people so effortlessly. Against Tottenham when I first saw him, he was passing the ball in the middle of the park like Cesc [Fabregas].”
