Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a number of defenders in recent months and the latest name linked with a move to the London club is that of Josko Gvardiol.
A report from Fichajes claims that the Tottenham hierarchy rates the Croatian defender highly and they are hoping to bring him to the London club at the end of the season.
The 21-year-old center back has been linked with a number of Premier League clubs in recent weeks and it will be interesting to see if Tottenham can fend off the competition and secure his services.
Antonio Conte needs to sign a top-class partner for Cristian Romero and the 21-year-old defender would be a superb acquisition. He has proven his world-class potential in the Bundesliga and in the recently concluded World Cup.
Gvardiol was one of the best young defenders in the recently concluded World Cup and he has the potential to develop into a future superstar.
However, the player is valued at €80 million and Daniel Levy is unlikely to sanction a big money move for the player without sales. Tottenham have a number of fringe players and their disposal and it remains to be seen whether they can get rid of the deadwood and bring in top-class players like Gvardiol in the coming months.
Players like Davinson Sanchez, Japhet Tanganga and Sergio Reguilon are all expected to move on at the end of the season.
Gvardiol has all the attributes to develop into a world-class player and he could prove to be a superb long-term investment for Tottenham.
