On November 16th, Gazzetta dello Sport reported Aleksandar Stanković’s stellar displays for Club Brugge have attracted Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United interest.
Inter Milan, who sold him in July, retain a €23m buyback clause for next summer. The fee will rise by €2m in 2027.
Calciomrecato.it backs up Tottenham’s interest and provides the latest on their efforts to sign him.
Inter’s idea is to bring him back next summer by activating the €23m clause. The 20-year-old fits the requirements the club’s owners. Their strategy is to sign young players on low salary and make profit from their future sale.
Stanković’s decision to join Club Brugge has paid off as he has played over 2,000 minutes from 27 matches. His performances have caught the attention of Spurs and other clubs.
Tottenham sporting director Fabio Paratici seems to be leading his side’s pursuit and has already made a move. It’s claimed the Spurs official has made contact to ask about the midfielder.
Calciomercato.it reports unnamed clubs from Spain and Germany are also in the picture to sign him. They add the Premier League’s financial power gives Tottenham an edge over other clubs. The outlet says this could also make Inter ‘falter’.
This would only be possible if Inter decide to sell Stanković after exercising the buyback clause.
Paratici has made a move and whether Tottenham will make advances for January or next summer remains to be seen.
