Tottenham Hotspur is reportedly in a battle with Manchester United and Arsenal about a deal to sign Athletic Club star Oihan Sancet, according to the Spanish outlet Signings.
Following James Maddison’s serious knee problem, the LilyWhites decided to strengthen the creative midfield position this summer. Initially they tried to buy Ebereechi Eze from Crystal Palace.
After losing the race by Arsenal, they finally decided to buy Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig. Chelsea loved the Dutchman, but Spurs won the race.
Simons enjoyed a smart start of his life in the English capital and helped his side to win the last two games in all games. He even registered an assist against West Ham United last weekend.
Now, Signings Suppose that although Tottenham has sufficient firepower in their No. 10 position, they intend to add this position further depth and showed their interest in Sancet after his recent promising versions.
However, the purchase of the Spaniard will not be easy in front of Thomas Frank’s side, because Arsenal, Man Utd and Aston Villa are also considering making a move.
Conflict
The Gunners are looking for a playmaker to supplement Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard and have identified Sannet as a priority goal. The side of Mikel Arteta is even ready to invest a considerable amount to secure his service.
On the other hand, Man Utd closely monitored the performances of the midfielder before making a potential dive next summer. He has seven years in his current contract in San Mamés Stadium and has a release clause of £ 69 million.
Sancet is a cam of feature, but is also comfortable in the box-to-box role. He is excellent in the air, has the opportunity to enter with a number of important goals, is efficient in creating opportunities for colleague attackers and also works hard without possession.
He showed his target score for Athletic Club in the past term, scored 17 goals and recorded three assists in all competitions.
The Spaniard is 6ft 2 in long and has the physicality to flourish in the Premier League. That is why he can be a smart acquisition for Tottenham, Arsenal or Man Utd as one of those clubs in the end manner to buy him.
