Report: Newcastle are set to challenge Spurs for 26-year-old Premier League star 

iNews have claimed that Newcastle United are the latest club to enter the race for Fulham centre-back Tosin Adarabioyo, who is rumoured to be on Tottenham’s radar.

With Adarabioyo’s current deal running out in the summer, the speculation over the centre-back’s future continues to intensify as we get closer to the summer transfer window.

A couple of days ago, Football Insider revealed that the 26-year-old is expected to be available on a free transfer after rejecting the Cottager’s latest contract offer.

The outlet also suggested that Tottenham are expected to face competition from both West Ham United and Liverpool for the versatile defender.

Newcastle enter race for Tosin Adarabioyo

Tottenham’s pursuit of Adarabioyo might be about to get even more complicated if iNews’s latest update is to be believed, with the outlet stating that the Magpies also have their eye on the player.

It is explained that since Eddie Howe’s men are walking a tightrope with respect to the Profit and Sustainability Rules, the chance to sign the Fulham star on a free transfer is quite appealing to them.

However, the publication points out that meeting Adarabiyo’s wage demands might not be easy for Newcastle to fulfil, given their current financial predicament.

Spurs Web Opinion

Adarabioyo and Lloyd Kelly will both have a whole host of destinations to choose from this summer, with both players now looking unlikely to sign new deals at their respective clubs.

However, neither will be too keen on making a move to Spurs as they would know that their game time will be quite limited in North London.
