Alasdair Gold suggests that one Tottenham target could be sold in the next six months if movements at his club are anything to go by.
Spurs have been very proactive this transfer window, completing Brennan Johnson’s sale in the early days of the month.
Subsequently, Tottenham have strengthened at left-back with the addition of Santos starlet Souza, and Spurs won the race for Conor Gallagher.
It was reported by journalist Dean Jones earlier today that Tottenham are expected to push for another significant signing soon, with the Lilywhites determined to show ambition this transfer window.
Tottenham receive Maghnes Akliouche transfer boost
Over the last few weeks, it has been reported that Spurs are exploring a move for Monaco’s Maghnes Akliouche.
However, the 23-year-old is not expected to come cheap, with Tottenham reportedly needing to pay in excess of £50m for the French starlet.
Football.London’s Alasdair Gold has now confirmed that Akliouche has been a long-term target for Spurs, and the club have watched the versatile winger very closely this season.
The journalist further adds that Monaco are looking for players in Akliouche’s position as they are preparing for the eventuality of his departure either this month or in the summer.
Other top teams are also looking at Akliouche
However, Thomas Frank’s men are not the only top European club eyeing a move for the Monaco star this month.
It has been reported that Tottenham are expected to face intense competition for Akliouche’s signature, with the winger wanted by many top clubs.
However, the North Londoners are not putting all their eggs in the Frenchman’s basket, with reports indicating that Spurs have formulated a seven-man winger shortlist.
