Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with multiple defenders recently, and the Inter Milan star Yann Bisseck is on their radar ahead of the summer window. 

According to a report from CaughtOffside, they will face competition from Manchester United and West Ham United for the 24-year-old German defender. Bisseck has done well for the Italian outfit, and he could prove to be a quality addition for Tottenham as well. Tottenham have scouted him this season. They were keen on signing the defender at the start of the season as well.

The north London outfit needs to sign a quality central defender in the summer. Cristian Romero has been linked to an exit, and they will need to replace the South American. The German defender has shown his quality in Italy, and he has physicality and technical attributes to do well in England as well.

Spurs move could be ideal for Yann Bisseck

The opportunity to join Spurs will be quite exciting for him. They have an ambitious project, and they could provide him with regular gametime. At Inter Milan, he is not a regular starter. He has started just 13 league games this season.

The 24-year-old needs to play regularly at this stage of his career, and moving to England would be ideal. Regular football in the Premier League could accelerate his development and help him nail down a regular starting spot for his country as well. 

The report claims that the player is valued at €55 million (£47m). It remains to be seen whether Tottenham can get the deal done. They have the resources to pay the asking price.

Meanwhile, West Ham and Manchester United are keeping tabs on the defender as well. It will be interesting to see if they follow up on their interest with an official offer to get the deal done. 

Bisseck might want to join a club with European football next season. He is currently playing in the semifinals of the UEFA Champions League with Inter Milan. Manchester United and Tottenham will have to win the UEFA Europa League this season to secure Champions League football for the next season. It remains to be seen how the situation unfolds.
