Eintracht Frankfurt midfielder Hugo Larsson has been linked with a move away from the club at the end of the season, and he is considering a move to Tottenham Hotspur.
The 20-year-old is highly rated in the Bundesliga, and he has been quite impressive for the German club this season. According to Give Me Sport, he will cost around £52 million in the summer. The player has been linked with Arsenal as well.
Tottenham have been tracking him for a while, and they are hoping to sign him in the summer. The player is weighing up a potential move and he will wait to see whether Tottenham can win the UEFA Europa League. Meanwhile, the report claims that Tottenham are increasingly confident of getting the deal done.
Hugo Larsson would improve Spurs
They could use more creativity and control in the middle of the park, and the 20-year-old would be the ideal acquisition. The Swedish international plays as a central midfielder, but he has the technical attributes to operate as an attacking midfielder as well. He will help him control the tempo of the game and create opportunities in the final third with his passing, vision, and technical ability. Larsson has six goals and an assist to his name this season.
The reported asking price is quite steep for the young midfielder, but he has the potential to justify the investment in the long-term. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham are willing to pay for him.
The report from Give Me Sport claims that the German outfit will not let him leave for cheap, and their asking price will have to be paid in order for the deal to happen. Tottenham need to improve the other areas of their squad as well, and spending £52 million on the talented young playmaker could be difficult for them.
It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.
