Tottenham keeping an eye on three Eintracht Frankfurt players this summer

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly eyeing moves for three Eintracht Frankfurt players, with the club’s recruitment team thought to have watched one young player closely in the first leg after he was asked to play out of position.

While Tottenham are looking to progress to the final four of the Europa League at Eintracht’s expense, there is a further subplot to the fixture as a couple of the Bundesliga side’s players are thought to be on the North London club’s radar.

Over recent months, there have been several reports suggesting that Spurs are big fans of Hugo Larsson and are plotting a summer move for the Swede.

A fresh update has now revealed that two more of Frankfurt’s players are on the wishlist of Tottenham Hotspur, as well as a few of their Premier League rivals.

The report says that Spurs’ recruitment team were ‘taking notes’ of the 21-year-old after he was asked to play up the pitch in the first leg.

The outlet reveals that scouts from West Ham and Man City were also at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to check out Brown.

In addition to Nathaniel Brown and Larsson, Hugo Ekitike is another Frankfurt star who is alleged to be on the radar of Spurs as well as several of their rivals.
