Tottenham Hotspur closely following Fenerbahce star alongside other European giants

Tottenham honcho Daniel Levy keeps 'huge fee' aside to bring in a marquee player in the winter transfer window.

Tottenham in contention with AC Milan and Leverkusen for Sebastian Szymanski

Sebastian Szymanski is under the watch of Tottenham Hotspur, Bayer Leverkusen and AC Milan, per Turkiye media outlet Fanatik. The 24-year-old has 12 goals and 14 assists from 40 games across all competitions.

The media also reports interest from Bayer Leverkusen. The Super Lig player joined Fenerbahce on 12 July 2023. Despite completing less than a year in the Turkish Superlig, the midfielder is garnering attention from all around.

The Polish international is also a key figure for his national team. Transfermarkt values the player at €20.00 million. His contract expires in 2027. The price tag makes him a bargain for Tottenham Hotspur who are on the lookout for a midfield option.

Should a move materialize in the summer, it will be the biggest one in Sebastian Szymanski’s career. He has never plied his trade in Europe’s big leagues. Joining the Premier League will be the grandest stage in his career so far.

The chaotic midfield chase

Ange Postecoglou is rebuilding his team. However, the Aussie manager is hungry, particularly for midfield. He has Yves Bissouma, Pape Matar Sarr and James Maddison as his primary options.

There is ever-present Rodrigo Bentancur at the manager’s disposal, alongside, Højbjerg, Skipp and Lo Celso. The talented midfield list is long in North London. Amidst all this, the manager has also secured the signature of up-and-coming midfielder Lucas Bergvall.

Now he also seems to be chasing Sebastian Szymanski. Postecoglou’s attempt to fortify his options stems from his experience this season. He was left with nearly zero options during the unavailability of first-team players owing to injuries.

However, this could also backfire in terms of player morale. The manager will have to give enough playing time to his players to maintain peace within the dressing room. The summertime will give a clear picture of who leaves and who stays. Patience is the game for Spurs fans at the moment!
