Report: Tottenham plan to spend big money on this Premier League playmaker

Tottenham Hotspur are surely set to dip their toes into the transfer window this summer, as Pochettino and Levy look to break their 16-month drought.

The last player to come through the doors at Hotspur Way was Lucas Moura way back in January 2018.

However, the Lilywhites may be forced to bolster their midfield this summer, after losing Mousa Dembele in January, and with the potential of a Christian Eriksen departure on the horizon (Express).

If Eriksen does leave, Tottenham are said to be willing to spend big money on a replacement with Premier League experience.

The Express claims that Pochettino is keen on a move for Leicester City’s James Maddison, after his debut Prem season ended with seven goals, including three free-kicks, and seven assists.

Leicester signed Maddison for around £20m last summer (BBC), but the Express claim Tottenham will have to use a large chunk of their £70+ Champions League prize money.

Spurs Web Opinion:

This is the transfer link I have been waiting for. In my opinion, Spurs should forget about Lo Celso and put that £52m into securing James Maddison. He is young, he’s English, and he only looks like he is going to get better. With goals, skills, assists, free-kicks, and vision, Spurs will find a fantastic replacement for Eriksen in Maddison.
