According to Turkish news outlet Aksam, Tottenham is the ‘largest suitor’ for the 24-year-old defender, and they recently failed with a €22 million deal to sign him.
The Turkish club is demanding a cost of roughly €25 million, and after careful thought, Spurs management has ‘agreed’ to pay the stated asking price.
Nelsson will now be joining the North London club in the coming weeks.
The 24-year-old has been a vital player for Galatasaray and might be a good fit for Tottenham.
To reclaim a place in the top four and qualify for the Champions League, North London must improve defensively.
They’ve also been associated to players like Edmond Tapsoba and Micky van de Ven.
Spurs were fairly fragile defensively last season, surrendering more over 60 goals in the league. They will need to improve in this area, and someone like Nelsson will undoubtedly assist them in tightening up defensively.
The chance to play for a Premier League team will be an exciting new step in the 24-year-old’s career, and he will most certainly be tempted to join.
There is no indication of when the transfer will take place, but it is reasonable to assume that it will happen soon if Tottenham has agreed to pay the reported asking fee.
Personal terms should be easy to reach with the athlete. Tottenham has the financial means to pay him handsomely, and the player will be eager to move to the Premier League.
