Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing the Bournemouth defender Lloyd Kelly.
The 25-year-old will be a free agent in the summer and the North London outfit are hoping to sign him for a bargain. According to a report from Football Insider, the Londoners are now preparing to open talks with the player regarding a summer move.
The report adds that Liverpool and Newcastle United are keen on the versatile defender as well. Kelly has proven himself to be a reliable performer in the Premier League and he is capable of operating as a central defender as well as a left-back. He could prove to be a quality acquisition for Tottenham.
The North London outfit have three quality central defenders at their disposal, but they could certainly use more depth. Signing a versatile player like Kelly could complete the defensive unit for the foreseeable future. The 25-year-old is well-settled in English as well and he could make an immediate impact.
Similarly, Liverpool will have to replace Joel Matip at the end of the season and the 25-year-old Bournemouth defender would be the ideal signing for them.
The opportunity to join clubs like Tottenham and Liverpool will be quite attractive for him and it remains to be seen when he ends up. Whoever ends up signing the versatile defender on a free transfer will have a major bargain on their hands.
