Spurs transfer news: Tottenham close to landing Dinamo Zagreb’s Dani Olmo for €25m

Muchodeporte (h/t Metro) claims that Tottenham are close to landing Spanish U21 forward Dani Olmo in a deal worth €25m.

The 21-year-old Dinamo Zagreb star played a crucial role as Spain U21 won the Euros in the summer.

The former Barcelona youngster still has two years left on his deal with Zagreb, and Croatian reports (h/t Metro) claimed that Manchester United were willing to make a big bid for the 21-year-old.

However, Spurs seem set to beat the Red Devils to the 21-year-old’s signing, and the report claims that we have agreed on terms with the player’s representative, Juanma Lopez.

Olmo had spoken earlier of the Premier League being an attractive destination (h/t Metro):

“La Liga is something more special because for me it is home, with my people.

“But those of England, Germany and Italy also attract me very much.”

Olmo could be a smart backup for Harry Kane, however, the youngster would want to start games regularly and continue his development.
