The Daily Mail reports that Tottenham Hotspur has widened their scope, eyeing Leeds United’s rising talent Archie Gray and Nottingham Forest’s Morgan Gibbs-White.
While recent buzz surrounded Spurs’ pursuits of Timo Werner and Radu Dragusin, the club’s focus on recruiting a number eight this month has been widely acknowledged (The Telegraph). However, the chase for Conor Gallagher, once deemed a top target, has simmered down due to cost concerns (Football Transfers).
Last week, The Mail initially highlighted Spurs’ interest in Gibbs-White, with scouts tracking the midfielder’s performances this season.
The latest scoop from the same outlet now includes Gray on Spurs’ radar. The 17-year-old has impressively cemented his place under Daniel Farke at Elland Road, hinting at an inevitable Premier League move in the near future.
Interestingly, The Mail suggests that while both Gray and Gibbs-White are targets, their potential transfer to Spurs is earmarked for the upcoming summer rather than during the current window.
Spurs Web Opinion:
It’s unlikely that either Forest or Leeds would entertain mid-season sales of their midfielders. Forest’s aim to retain Premier League status and Leeds’ aspirations for promotion make such moves doubtful.
