Tottenham have been linked with 22-year-old versatile winger Jaden Philogene
Tottenham are building a team for a brighter tomorrow and the transfers they are linked with lately are ceiling raisers who are still budding into a high potential player they can become. Alejo Véliz and Lucas Bergval are two of the highly regarded names that have made the move to North London.
Lucas Bergvall is set to board his flight to London in the summer after Tottenham agreeing a £8.5million deal with Djurgardens. Daniel Levy is looking to add more raw talent into the squad, so Ange Postecoglou can nurture them as per his playing style.
Hull City winger Jaden Philogene is one of those young stars who have been linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur stadium. Primarily a left-winger, the 22-year-old is versatile enough to feather on both flanks. He is enjoying an exceptional season in Yorkshire boasting a tally of 14 goal contributions (8 goals and 6 assists) in 21 appearances in Championship this season.
The N17-based side have spent over £230million since Ange Postecoglou took over the reins at Tottenham last summer. Daniel Levy & Co. are ready to spend more as they approach the 2024 summer transfer window.
According to a report by TEAMtalk, Tottenham are frontrunners in the race to sign England under-21 international.
The Lilywhites did bring in Brennan Johnson from Nottingham Forest last summer in a deal worth £47.5million, however, stats suggest Jaden Philogene has a better record in the final third and Tottenham won’t mind paying for his services this summer.
Hull vice-chairman Tan Kesler has suggested Aston Villa hold a £ 15 million buyback clause in the deal that brought Jaden Philogene to Hull City to be promoted to the Premier League. Unai Emery & Aston Villa felt the 22-year-old was like a new signing when he gave him an opportunity early in the ongoing season however he chose to cash in on him the moment Hull turned up. He only cost £5million when Hull City signed him last summer.
Respected journalist Dean Jones speaking with GIVEMESPORT, spoke about how he is a profile that peaks Tottenham’s interest.
“I haven’t heard that Tottenham are specifically looking at Philogene but, when you consider the type of signings that they are looking at, he does fit the profile that they are looking for in terms of players that are emerging and going to be capable of making a big breakthrough in the Premier League.
“I can believe that he would be on their radar, based on everything else I’ve heard. He is obviously having a pretty big season, and he made a name for himself with the special goal he scored at Rotherham.”
