Tottenham have not given up their pursuit of 23-year-old PL ace who Steven Gerard called a 'top talent'

Aston Villa star Jacob Ramsey can be a player Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing before the deadline

According to The Athletic[subscription required] (h/t Football Talk), transfer expert and Athletic writer David Ornstein indicates that Aston Villa star Jacob Ramsey can be a player that can join our forces before the transfer window deadline.

This young player from England’s u21 team has played a crucial role in Villa’s squad. He started his career at the club and made his first team debut in September 2020 against Fulham, when Dean Smith was the head coach. He has established himself as a consistent presence in the team. This season, Ramsey has played in 10 Premier League matches and made 14 appearances in all competitions for Unai Emery’s successful team.

According to the journalist, there is a chance that Aston Villa may look upon selling Ramsey as a way of generating funds and ensuring compliance with Premier League profit and sustainability regulations. They might agree to a transfer fee of about £50m.

With the recent acquisitions of Timo Werner on loan from RB Leipzig and Radu Dragusin from Genoa, Spurs are taking steps to bolster their squad depth. Now, they have set their sights on Ramsey, the talented midfielder from Aston Villa.

Tottenham began the season with great momentum, leading the League. However, their chances took a hit when important players got injured, revealing their limited squad depth. Unfortunately, their on-field performances couldn’t match their previous results. As a football analyst would say, a dip in performance resulted in a slump, and while Spurs are showing signs of recovery, they currently occupy the fifth spot in the Premier League standings.

It is apparent that Ramsey can adapt to other roles in midfield, and even play the left wing. Of late, he has been displaying tidbits of his skills in England’s Premier League and it would be a brilliant investment if Tottenham decide to acquire this player. Ramsey signature will be very interesting to see if Lilywhites can get it before closing the window and strengthen their midfield.
