Report: Brighton set to submit offer for Tottenham midfield target

Football Insider have revealed that Brighton are ready to launch an offer for Leicester City midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, who is rumoured to be on Tottenham’s radar.

Dewsbury-Hall has been one of Leicester’s best players this season, having managed 12 goals and 14 assists in 43 outings in the Championship so far (Transfermarkt).

It was reported by talkSPORT earlier this month that the Foxes have to sell some assets this summer to offset their losses, with an exit from the King Power Stadium being on the cards for the midfielder this summer.

The report claimed that Tottenham are sniffing around the 25-year-old but face competition from Brighton, who have retained an interest in the player after their failed January move for him.

Brighton to make an offer for Dewsbury-Hall

Football Insider have now also backed Dewsbury-Hall to leave the King Power Stadium this summer, claiming that the Foxes would have to sell the player after posting losses of £90m in their latest accounts.

The report claims that while Leicester had initially valued the versatile midfielder at £40m, they are now ready to sell him for around £30m.

The publication adds that the Seagulls are now planning a new bid for Dewsbury-Hall and are hopeful of bringing him through the door this summer.

Spurs Web Opinion

While Tottenham are looking for a number eight and preferably a homegrown option, it appears as if the Lilywhites have their eye on a higher-calibre player than Dewsbury-Hall, with Connor Gallagher and Morgan Gibbs-White seemingly at the top of Spurs’ wishlist.
