SportsLens has reported that Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur is eyeing a move for Blackburn Rovers’ Adam Wharton in the January transfer window. According to journalist Dean Jones, Tottenham is showing interest in securing the 19-year-old midfielder, with a potential cost of £19 million.

In addition to the pursuit of Wharton, SportsLens has also mentioned Tottenham’s attempts to sign Norwegian international forward Antonio Nusa from Club Brugge for a reported £25 million, with Chelsea also linked to the player. There are even claims from Belgium that Spurs are nearing a deal for the 18-year-old.

In a personal opinion piece, the idea that Tottenham should allow Wharton to remain at Blackburn Rovers if they secure his signature is suggested. The author believes that Wharton’s best development path would involve returning to Blackburn on loan for the remainder of the season after potentially joining Tottenham.

The article highlights Wharton’s current positive contributions at Blackburn, noting his 21 starts and four substitute appearances in the Championship this season, during which he has scored one goal and provided three assists. Additionally, it mentions his 12 starts and six substitute appearances in the Championship last season, in which he scored two goals and registered one assist.
