Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing Brighton defender Tariq Lamptry.
according to Football transfersthe 24-year-old will be a free agent at the end of the season, and Brighton could sell him in January to recoup some money from his departure.
Tottenham are looking to secure his services for a cut-price fee and it remains to be seen if they can get a deal over the line. They will face competition from Everton and West Ham United.
The 24-year-old was highly rated in the Premier League a few seasons ago, but his development seems to have stalled. Regardless, Lamptey remains a talented young defender with impressive potential and could become an important player for Tottenham in the long term.
Pedro Porro has been linked to a move to Real Madrid and Tottenham are likely preparing for contingencies if the Spain international decides to move on in the near future. Lamptey is capable of operating as a right-back, left-back and full-back. Apart from his defensive qualities, he is also quite impressive going forward.
Lamptey could be a useful option
With the right guidance, he could be a key player for Tottenham in the future. The chance to join Tottenham will also be quite attractive for the player. I could compete in European football with them and fight for trophies.
Tottenham have a talented squad at their disposal but they need to add more depth to really compete with the elite clubs. Players like Lamptey could be very useful options for them.
With Brighton looking to sell, agreeing a deal shouldn’t be difficult for Tottenham. They have the resources to get the deal done, and it remains to be seen if all parties can come to an agreement soon.
