Postecoglou seeks depth as Tottenham target free transfer for Bournemouth defender Lloyd Kelly
Tottenham Hotspur are vying to bring Bournemouth defender Lloyd Kelly to White Hart Lane in the upcoming summer transfer window as Ange Postecoglou braces up for a major squad overhaul in the upcoming summer transfer window.
The North Londoners are looking to explore bringing in a central-defender following the conclusion of the ongoing season. There is a need for depth in the position despite Daniel Levy & Co. bringing in Radu Dragusin from Genoa for a fee reported to be in excess of £26 million as Spurs beat a late hijack attempt from Bayern Munich to land the Romanian central defender.
The Australian gaffer will be looking to add to his options in the position, as he was forced to play full-back in the CB position, and he wouldn’t want to repeat the same feat next season.
Spurs are looking at a potential move for Lloyd Kelly on a free transfer, per Fichajes, as his contract with the Cherries runs to a conclusion at the end of the ongoing campaign. He has been impressing under Andoni Iraola this season, and his performances depict his high potential. Any transfer that brings him to North London would ensure that Tottenham saves transfer fees that could be invested in other areas of the squad.

Lloyd Kelly was signed by Bournemouth from Bristol City in 2019 and has been an integral presence in the backline at Vitality Stadium for a few seasons. While he is a centre-back by trade, he can also play on the left.
Ange Postecoglou has already signed two centre-backs in the past couple of windows, and he will be looking to do the same in the upcoming summer transfer window. Spurs have been linked to a few defenders in the last month, and it will be interesting to see who they pursue.
