Tottenham star Juan Foyth in talks with Valencia
According to Cope via Sport Witness (h/t Football.london), Tottenham Hotspur star Juan Foyth is in negotiations with La Liga outfit Valencia over the possibility of a late summer transfer.
The 22-year-old Foyth joined Tottenham in 2017 from Argentine outfit Estudiantes. But, in his three years at the club, the versatile defender hasn’t been able to establish himself as a regular in the Spurs’ first-team.
The 2019/20 campaign was a difficult one for the Argentine international, who had to deal with multiple injuries, while the change of management didn’t help his cause either. Indeed, Foyth received very few opportunities under Jose Mourinho and failed to make the most of those.
And the versatile defender hasn’t made it to the matchday squad even once in the new season. With Tottenham and Mourinho looking to generate transfer funds to go after the club’s targets, Foyth has been named as one player who could be sacrificed in the current transfer window. (h/t The Sun)
Foyth has been constantly linked with a switch to Premier League newcomers Leeds United all through the summer. And now, as per the aforementioned report, the 22-year-old has emerged as a target for Valencia late in the transfer window. (h/t Football.london)
It is being claimed that the defender’s representatives are already in talks with the La Liga club, as Foyth seeks more regular first-team opportunities. At the same time, the 22-year-old is also being chased by another newly-promoted Premier League team in the form of Fulham. (h/t Football.london)
