Tottenham has been in talks with the agents of French midfielder Rayan Cherki about a possible summer move to the Premier League.
Cherki is one of the bright young talents rising from the French game, and he is being pursued by a number of clubs.
Newcastle are among the English clubs interested in Cherki, who could make a decision on his future before the transfer window shuts.
According to Football Transfers, Cherki’s representatives have been in London discussing a possible move to Tottenham.
According to Football Transfers, Chelsea hopes to get a piece of any transaction, with the attacking midfielder having a number of choices.
Cherki, 19, has already appeared in more than 80 Ligue 1 games and is expected to become a future star for the French national side.
Cherki, who has been praised for his ‘outstanding’ abilities, is already a fixture in France’s under-21 squad. Of course, the next stage for him is to establish himself in the first team.
Tottenham, of course, are looking to add new players for their new boss, Ange Postecoglou. Having already signed James Maddison, it remains to be seen if another attacking midfielder is on Ange’s mind.
While Tottenham fans may wonder where Cherki fits into this team right immediately, you can’t always afford to pass on an opportunity.
Cherki is one of Europe’s top developing talents, and if there is a window for Tottenham to sign him, Spurs must make a move.
We all know Chelsea is huge on signing top young players, so their presence could be an issue. Tottenham, on the other hand, appears to be right in the mix.
Indeed, if they can land Rayan Cherki ahead of the competition, the Londoners will have done well.
