Tottenham Hotspur were interested in move for Maxime Estève during the last winter market. Spurs weren’t able to get a deal over the line for the Burnley player and a transfer didn’t appear to be advanced at any stage.
That doesn’t mean Tottenham completely walked away from the idea, as made clear by a claim from France on Tuesday evening. According to L’Equipe, Spurs’ attempts during January were real, and it’s even claimed Tottenham made a €24m offer to Burnley at the beginning of the market.
Burnley rejected the offer for the 23-year-old, being set against him leaving during the winter window. The Clarets were battling for promotion to the Premier League and clearly didn’t feel the money on offer justified losing the player’s influence for the remainder of the 2024/25 season.
Now, with Burnley a Premier League club, Tottenham are having another go at the transfer. L’Equipe report Spurs. have started talks again with Burnley.
The Clarets demanded €35m for Maxime Estève in January, and it’s unclear what they’d want now.
