Tottenham Hotspur are working on a deal to sign Leverkusen defender Edmond Tapsoba. This is according to Fabrizio Romano. Via Give Me Sport, who shares that Spurs are really keen on the Tapsoba.
Edmond Tapsoba appears to be one of Tottenham’s top targets this summer transfer window.
After bringing in the likes of James Maddison and Guglielmo Vicario, Spur’s defence is now the main priority as that is their main weakness.
Tapsoba has already been described as the perfect signing for the club. This is by their own data department.
His preference for playing on the left of a back four. This makes him the ideal partner for Cristian Romero.
Tottenham still working on the Edmond Tapsoba deal and could get the deal done soon
Fabrizio Romano says:
“It’s gone a bit quiet on the media side, but I’m told that yes the deal is absolutely on.
“It’s a difficult deal and it has always been a difficult deal because Bayer Leverkusen are a difficult club to negotiate with and we saw that with many other deals in the past.
“This is still the case because they want big money for their stars and it’s not easy at all, but Tottenham are still working.”
The Premier League kicks off in two weeks. Ange Postecoglou will be desperate to have at least one defender coming in before then.
If Leverkusen are going to make a deal for Tapsoba difficult then Spurs need to keep working on other players at the same time.
