Tottenham remain keen on signing the RC Lens defender Abdukodir Khusanov.
According to Give Me Sport, Tottenham are seriously considering a move for the Uzbekistan international and they have made regular checks on him in recent months. They sent scouts to watch the player in action recently.
The 20-year-old is regarded as one of the finest young defensive prospects in the French league right now, and he could prove to be a quality long-term addition to the North London club. They need more quality and depth in the defensive unit and Khusanov would be a superb addition.
Tottenham need to add more quality and depth to their defensive unit and signing another central defender would be a wise decision. Players like Cristian Romero and Micky Van de Ven have had their fair share of injury problems, and Tottenham need more options at their disposal.
Khusanov might fancy Tottenham switch
Meanwhile, the opportunity to play in the Premier League will be quite exciting for the 20-year-old defender. It will be a major step up in his career and he would get to test himself against world-class attackers in English football. Regular exposure to the Premier League could accelerate his development as well.
It will be interesting to see if Spurs can get the deal done. We have covered reports recently stating that the player is valued at around €20 million. Tottenham certainly have the financial muscle to afford him. However, they might have to face competition from other Premier League clubs for his signature. They should look to act quickly if they want to get the deal done.
The player has the potential to justify the reported asking price as well, and the deal could look like a major bargain if he manages to fulfil his potential.
