Szymanski to N-17? Tottenham look to bolster midfield this summer
Tottenham Hotspur are looking to explore the Turkish market this summer as they express interest in Fenerbahce star Sebastian Szymanski, per Aksam.
The North Londoners will be looking to add depth to their roster in the upcoming summer transfer window to build on the progress they have made since Ange Postecoglou took charge of the club. Adding depth into midfield is one of the points on Daniel Levy’s summer list, as the Lilywhites have been linked with various midfielders for a probable more, and the 25-year-old Polish midfielder has now landed on Spurs target list following his impressive performances for Fenerbahce.
Spurs target Fenerbahce just last summer, moving from Dynamo Moscow, and the 25-year-old has settled into life in Turkey seamlessly. He has enjoyed an exceptional campaign at the Sukru Saracoglu Stadium in the ongoing season, netting 12 goals and registering 18 assists in 52 appearances in all competitions.
His goal contributions make him an integral figure in İsmail Kartal’s team this season, and Aksam claims that Spurs have held talks with the player’s representatives in order to persuade him to move to North London, with the midfielder open to entertaining a move to the Premier League.
Maddison rival? Tottenham eye Polish playmaker Szymanski
Sebastian Szymanski is an attacking midfielder by trade, and he could come in to provide much-needed competition to James Maddison at White Hart Lane this summer. Spurs have suffered when the former Leicester star was serving sidelines and he has not looked his best since nursing his latest injury. It is important for Tottenham to ensure the likes of Maddison feel push and competitive for their place in the starting eleven.
In Sebastian Szymanski, they will sign a youngster who is actively looking to prove his abilities and would love to play for an elite side like Tottenham. It is quoted that he would be available for a cheap fee of €20 million this summer, and for those bucks, he could just be the bargain that Levy was looking for in the market.
