Tottenham Hotspur are considering a swap deal for Victor Nelsson
Tottenham Hotspur are actively looking to bolster their defensive options this summer and have set their sights on Galatasaray’s talented centre-back, Victor Nelsson.
The North London club is prepared to offer Galatasaray £12.9m in addition to the services of Davinson Sanchez to secure the Danish defender’s signature. It helps that the Turkish club are actually interested in the Colombian.
Turkish outlet Sabah suggests that negotiations between Tottenham and Galatasaray have progressed well, with club officials from both sides engaging in discussions. Tottenham’s representatives met with the vice president of Galatasaray to explore the possibility of a deal involving Nelsson.
The 22-year-old Victor Nelsson has been an impressive presence in Galatasaray’s backline and has caught the attention of several top clubs across Europe. With a release clause of £21.5m, Nelsson’s potential move to Tottenham is being viewed as a realistic proposition.
Davinson Sanchez’s tenure at Tottenham has been somewhat underwhelming since his high-profile transfer from Ajax. The Colombian centre-back has struggled to live up to the lofty expectations placed upon him.
Tottenham’s interest in Victor Nelsson reflects their determination to strengthen their defence ahead of the upcoming season. Manager Ange Postecoglou’s attacking style of play demands a solid defensive unit capable of providing stability at the back.
For Tottenham, acquiring Nelsson would not only provide a boost to their defensive options but also present an opportunity for the young Danish defender to showcase his talents in the highly competitive Premier League.

As negotiations progress between the two clubs, it remains to be seen whether Galatasaray will accept Tottenham’s proposed offer for Nelsson. However, the inclusion of Davinson Sanchez, along with a substantial cash sum, should sweeten the deal for the Turkish giants.
Nelsson would be a great acquisition for the North London club. Getting Sanchez off the books would be a greater benefit. Let’s see if this deal can go through.
