Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keen on signing Borussia Dortmund attacking midfielder Julian Brandt.
The 28-year-old has been a key player for the German club and his performances have caught the attention of the North London club. He has 32 goals and 41 assists in the league since joining Dortmund.
Brad was connected to Newcastle in recent months. Arsenal were keen on him last year too.
James Maddison has been quite inconsistent since joining the club and Tottenham are looking for more quality and depth in this area of the pitch. The 28-year-old is capable of operating in the number ten role as well as winger. It will add goals and creativity to the side.
There is no doubt that the player has the technical attributes to do well in English football and could be an important player for Tottenham.
According to football transfersTottenham want to add more creativity and technical ability to the final third. However, they have limited funds and will not be able to move for expensive targets like Eberechi Eze. Brandt is likely to be available at a more reasonable price. His contract expires in the summer of 2025 and the German club are likely to sell him for a knock-down fee in January. They won’t want to lose the player on a free transfer next summer.
It will be interesting to see if Tottenham can secure a deal with Dortmund in the coming days. Brandt has struggled for regularity this season and Tottenham could be an attractive destination for him if he is promised plenty of playing time.
Tottenham need quality additions
Spurs will be desperate for Champions League qualification this season and have been pretty mediocre so far. They need to improve their squad during the January window in order to bounce back strongly and build a winning run. Acquiring quality players in January could prove to be a wise decision. They need to add more creativity to the squad and should look to add more depth to their defense as well.
It will be interesting to see if Tottenham can bring in the right additions next month when the window opens again.
