Swansea City prodigy Nathan Wood on the radar of Tottenham Hotspur
According to popular Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Swansea prodigy Nathan Wood is on the radar of Premier League giants Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal.
The 20-year-old defender currently plies his trade at Swansea City, where he has impressed with his performances this season. He has undoubtedly garnered interest from the big boys in the Premier League.
Tottenham is not the only Premier League club interested in the young defender’s services. North London rivals Arsenal are also keen on signing him, which could lead to a bidding war between the two clubs.
However, if Nathan Wood wants to develop his game and reach his full potential, a move to Tottenham could be the best option for him. Spurs are in dire need of a reliable centre-back, and the youngster could slot in perfectly alongside Cristian Romero.
The lack of depth and quality in Tottenham’s backline has been a major issue for them this season. Their defensive frailties were exposed in the early stages of the campaign, which saw them ship in goals at an alarming rate.
However, Romero can’t do it all alone, and Spurs need to bring in another quality defender to strengthen their squad. Nathan Wood could be the perfect fit for the club. He is young, talented, and has a bright future ahead of him.
With regular game time, he could develop into a top-class centre-back and form a formidable partnership with Romero at the heart of Tottenham’s defence. However, we must remember that he is far from a finished article.
The prospect of playing in the Premier League and rubbing shoulders with some of the best players in the world could be a huge lure for Nathan Wood. He has already represented England at the U21 level, and a move to Tottenham could help him take his game to the next level.
