Spurs chase “new” Eriksen

An article by Danish news outlet BT has said we are among the clubs interested in signing Nordsjaelland midfielder Mathias Jensen.

We move into our new stadium this summer and many fans are hoping to see a marquee signing , but Mauricio Pochettino rarely works like that, and prefers to develop young players.

Spurs are looking for a long term replacement for Mousa Dembele and the BT article says we have watched Nordsjaelland ace Jensen on several occasions as we plot a summer move.

The 22 year-old has impressed in his native Denmark as a diminutive playmaker with quality on the ball and BT reported in December that Ajax scout John Steen Olsen – the same man who brought Christian Eriksen to Amsterdam – has scouted Jensen, with the Dutch side keen to land him to boost their midfield.

BT’s article goes on to add that Southamptonare also keen on Jensen, as are Bayer Leverkusen, but Spurs may hope that the prospect of emulating Eriksen can help secure the Danish youngster’s signature this summer.
