Report: Leicester and Southampton both want to sign Spurs academy graduate

According to The Telegraph, Oliver Skipp is now attracting interest from all three newly promoted Premier League clubs.

Oliver Skipp could leave Tottenham

There has been a mass exodus from Tottenham this summer as Ange Postecoglou continues to put his own print on the squad and it has now emerged that Skipp could also head for the exit door.

The Telegraph claim that the midfielder is keen to play regular first-team football and is expected to depart his boyhood club before the window slams shut.

It appears there is no shortage of interest in the Spurs academy graduate either.

Ipswich, Leicester and Southampton all like Skipp

The 23-year-old’s potential availability has allegedly caught the interest of Leicester City, Ipswich Town and Southampton, who are thought to be plotting a move for the player.

The publication states that the Foxes see Skipp as a potential replacement for Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, with the Spurs man potentially set to reunite with Harry Winks if he makes a move to the King Power Stadium.

Meanwhile, Ipswich manager Keiran McKenna, who previously coached at Spurs, is also said to be a big fan of the Tottenham midfielder.

Spurs Web Opinion

I would be surprised if Tottenham let Skipp go as not only is he a homegrown option but Postecoglou would feel that he needs adequate options in the middle of the park in order to be able to compete in four competitions.

It would perhaps hinge on whether Spurs sign another midfielder in the coming days and weeks.
