Tottenham are keen on the Club Brugge winger Andreas Skov Olsen.

According to a report from Give Me Sport, they are making regular checks on the 24-year-old Denmark winger ahead of a potential move. The report states that Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has made it his priority to sign a quality winger in 2025 and therefore they are looking at Skov Olsen as an option. 

The winger has impressed with his performances in Belgium and he could prove to be a quality acquisition for the North London club. He has the physical and technical attributes to thrive in English football and it will be interesting to see if the North London club can get the deal done. 

He has been linked with the move to the Premier League in the past as well, and the winger was reportedly valued at £25 million back then. It remains to be seen whether Club Brugge are prepared to sell him for a reasonable price in the coming months. 

Tottenham will need to improve the other areas of their squad as well, and they are unlikely to pay a premium for the player. Meanwhile, Skov Olsen will be attracted to the idea of joining a Premier League club. It would be an exciting step up for him, and he would get to test himself in the Premier League.

Regular football in England could accelerate his development and help him improve further. The player is entering the peak years of his career and he will want to compete at the highest level. Tottenham could be the ideal destination for him. 

The Denmark International is naturally a right-sided winger, but he is versatile enough to operate on either flank. With Dejan Kulusevski switching to a central role, it makes sense for Spurs to move for a right winger. The player has four goals and an assist this season. It remains to be seen whether Spurs come forward with an offer for him.
