Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly showing interest in signing Wolves defender Max Kilman, as per Daily Express journalist Ryan Taylor.
Tottenham are actively seeking defensive reinforcements this summer, and Kilman has emerged as one of the players on their radar.
According to Taylor, Wolves may consider parting ways with Kilman if Tottenham were to make a bid, helping them the financial means to strengthen their squad during the summer transfer window.
Taylor told GiveMeSport:
“I think ultimately it’d be down to Julen Lopetegui and what he feels, but I think Wolves could probably do with another big sale like that because it would help them have finances to recruit even further.
I think Kilman is an underrated defender, and I think the likes of Tottenham and West Ham are definitely looking at him. I do rate him quite highly actually, having watched him a few times closely this season, and his ability to pass with both feet is exceptional.”
It is expected that signing the 26-year-old Kilman would cost Tottenham in the range of £25 million to £30 million.
In addition to Kilman, Tottenham have also been linked with a potential move for Manchester United’s Harry Maguire, with various reports circulating on the subject.
Former Spurs defender Craig Dawson has even voiced his support for the club to pursue the England international.
Tottenham are likely sign multiple defenders this summer, with the likes of Eric Dier and Davinson Sanchez set to leave.
However, the club’s absence from the upcoming Champions League season could make it challenging for them to attract high-profile players, despite their previous links to top-class defenders under former manager Antonio Conte.
