According to TEAMtalk, Eintracht Frankfurt left-back Nathaniel Brown, who provided an assist in the club’s 2-1 win over Barcelona on Tuesday, is on Tottenham Hotspur’s radar.
The 22-year-old’s impressive performances in the Bundesliga and in the Champions League have not gone unnoticed in England, with a move to the Premier League now thought to be on the cards for the player.
Brown, who has a goal and four assists to his name this term, has impressed scouts with his modern style of play, and it is not just Tottenham who are his admirers.
It is revealed that Manchester City, West Ham, Arsenal and Man United may battle the Lilywhites for the German international’s signature.
Destiny Udogie injury news has made Spurs consider Brown
TEAMtalk explain that Thomas Frank’s men are keen on adding a left-back to their squad due to Destiny Udogie’s injury history.
The Italian’s latest injury setback, which will keep him out of action until January, has now convinced the North London club to look closely at the Frankfurt star ahead of January.
The outlet adds that the Bundesliga club are open to selling Brown but only for a fee upwards of £50m, while the player is keen to test himself in the Premier League.
