Tottenham still haven’t finished drafting a transfer shortlist, Fabrizio Romano reveals
Amidst contradictory updates over the last few days regarding Tottenham’s advances towards Eberechi Eze, Fabrizio Romano has now revealed what his sources have told him about Spurs’ interest in the Crystal Palace star.
Spurs fans have been left scratching their heads over the last few days, amidst the various contradictory claims made by different outlets about Eze’s future.
A few days ago, it was reported that Tottenham were prepared to meet Eberechi Eze’s £68m release clause.
The same update stated that Thomas Frank is convinced that the Eagles man is the ideal fit for his side, while the 26-year-old is keen to be part of the Dane’s project at N17.
However, the very next day, journalist Ben Jacobs claimed that Tottenham had backed off from their pursuit of Eze.
Fabrizio Romano reveals where Tottenham stand on Eberechi Eze
Fabrizio Romano has now explained that the Spurs recruitment team are still in the process of working out their top targets along with Frank.
He explained that Eze is one of several names on Tottenham Hotspur’s wishlist, but the Lilywhites are not currently holding active negotiations with Crystal Palace.
When asked about Spurs’ pursuit of Eze, Romano told GiveMeSport: “They are preparing the list together with Thomas Frank. So at the moment, there could be plenty of names before they decide who is the player they want. For sure.
“One player they appreciate already, since last summer, is Eberechi Eze, who did fantastically this season at Crystal Palace. And so he remains one of the targets on the list at Spurs.
“But at the moment still not an active negotiation, because they are still assessing all the options and then deciding who is the player they want to sign.”
Which other attackers are Spurs eyeing?
Over recent days, it has emerged that Spurs also hold an interest in Mohammed Kudus, Antoine Semenyo and Xavi Simons, among others.
There have also been some suggestions that Tottenham are still continuing to monitor Tyler Dibling, who is expected to leave Southampton following their relegation.
However, Spurs appear to have missed on Bryan Mbeumo, who is now edging closer to a move to Manchester United.
