Tottenham could test Club Brugge’s resolve with a formal offer for Andreas Skov Olsen
Tottenham Hotspur enjoyed a productive summer transfer window where they not only added some exciting players but also offloaded the deadwood off their books.
It has not been plain sailing for the north Londoners, but it is clear that the club is in the right direction under Ange Postecoglou. Things are well and truly taking shape, as Ange Postecoglou integrates the summer signings into his squad at the Hotspur Way.
While Spurs are recovering from a slow start to the Premier League season with good performances and results on the pitch, Daniel Levy and Co. are already putting plans in place for the upcoming transfer windows. According to an exclusive report from GIVEMESPORT, Tottenham have been regularly monitoring Club Brugge star Andreas Skov Olsen.
After failing to make the desired impact in two-and-a-half seasons at Italian club Bologna, Andreas Skov Olsen made the switch to Club Brugge in January 2022. Since then, he has established himself as one of the highly-rated forwards across the continent thanks to his consistent displays in the Belgium top flight. He has already registered four goals and an assist over the course of 13 appearances in all competitions this season.
The Denmark international’s eye-catching displays have put several clubs on red alert including Arsenal, Aston Villa, West Ham United, Sevilla and AC Milan. The aforementioned report adds Tottenham are making ‘regular checks on Skov Olsen’ ahead of potentially testing Club Brugge’s resolve with a bid. Spurs have to decide whether to pounce imminently in January as the winger is making plans to consider the next destination of his career.
The 24-year-old, who is understood to be valued at £25million, has been named as a potential target for the Lilywhites as they look to add quality and depth in the attacking ranks. The current wide options for Spurs include the likes of Brennan Johnson, Wilson Odobert, Son Heung-min, Timo Werner, Richarlison and Mikey Moore.
Richarlison has endured an underwhelming time at Spurs since arriving from Everton in 2022, Werner’s loan is unlikely to be made permanent following poor displays and Son will turn 33 by the end of the season. While Odobert joined from Burnley in the summer and South Korean talent Min-hyeok Yang is poised to team up with the club from Gangwon FC in January, Spurs may decide to invest again in a wide forward as a potential replacement for either Son or Richarlison.
Due to his age, experience and potential, Skov Olsen would be a smart fit at the Hotspur Way. The Dane is a talented lad who has shown his potential for Club Brugge for some time and has been someone that Tottenham have kept close tabs on since May 2019.
With so many clubs circling him, Levy and Co. must decide whether to intensify our interest in Skov Olsen with a formal offer in January or not.
