N17 Calling? Tottenham Hotspur look to add rising star Cristian Medina to ranks

Tottenham Hotspur are looking to sign Argentine midfielder Cristian Medina in the upcoming summer transfer window, per Boca Noticias, as Boca Juniors are keen to keep the 21-year-old for the foreseeable future.

Spurs have been heavily linked with high-potential youngsters lately as the club invests in the future while ensuring they get acclimatized to the culture and the playing style at N17. Cristian Medina looks like one of those players Spurs are looking at, and he might prove to be a valuable long-term investment for the North Londoners. 

The 2002-born midfielder is primarily a central midfielder, although he is flexible enough to play as a defensive midfielder and right-sided wide player. If the Lilywhites do sign him, Medina’s versatility will be a huge advantage.

Premier League trio vie for Cristian Medina’s signature

While Spurs are looking keen on his signatures, West Ham and Brighton are also mentioned as potential destinations for the Boca Juniors midfielder. Alongside the Premier League trio, Inter Milan are also interested in his services. 

Any details around the pricing and where all the clubs involved stand with the rumored transfer are still unknown. Tottenham will have to dig deep to understand the specifics of the deal. 

Cristian Medina still has three years left on his current deal at Estadio Alberto J. Armando, and his current employers are looking to keep him this summer. That may change when a club with the financial and sporting capacity of Tottenham Hotspur joins the race for a potential transfer. Interest from the Lilywhites would be an exciting opportunity—something that would be a tempting option for Cristian.
