Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing the Brentford midfielder Yehor Yarmoliuk.
The 21-year-old has impressed with his performances for the Premier League club, and Manchester United are also keeping tabs on him. According to Mark Brus on the Daily Briefing, Tottenham have been scouting the player in action, and their scouts are raving about his performances.
Manchester United have him on their radar as well, but Tottenham believe that Thomas Frank could use his connections at Brentford and help them “move to the front of the queue”.
Tottenham need Yehor Yarmoliuk
Tottenham could use more quality in the middle of the park, and the 21-year-old would be the ideal acquisition. He knows Thomas Frank, and the opportunity to reunite with his former manager will be exciting for the player. He’s young enough to improve further, and he could develop into a top-class player for the North London club.
Yarmoliuk will add control and defensive cover to the side. He could be the ideal partner for Joao Palhinha. It seems unlikely that Tottenham will be able to sign him in January, and any move might have to wait until the summer window. Brentford will not want to lose a key player in the middle of the season.
Man United keen on Yarmoliuk
Meanwhile, Manchester United need more quality in the midfield as well. They have the resources to sign the 21-year-old, and it will be interesting to see if they can convince him to join the club. Tottenham might be able to offer him European football next season, and that could give them an edge. Also, the presence of Thomas Frank could make it easy for the London club to convince the player.
It will be interesting to see where Yarmoliuk ends up.
