Tottenham Hotspur have now entered the race to sign the Leicester City midfielder Bilal El Khannouss.
The 21-year-old has been linked to the move to the Premier League, and Crystal Palace are hoping to sign him. According to Africa Foot, Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has now initiated a move to sign the 21-year-old.
Can Spurs sign Bilal El Khannouss?
The North London outfit are hoping to win the race for his signature. It will be interesting to see if they can hijack Crystal Palace’s move for the player. It is no secret that Tottenham need a quality creator, especially after missing out on Eberechi Eze.
On the other hand, Crystal Palace are looking to sign the 21-year-old as a replacement for Eze.
It will be interesting to see which of the two clubs can win the race for his signature. The player is valued at €35 million, and they have the resources to get the deal done. Both clubs need more cutting-edge in the final third, and the 21-year-old will help them improve. He would be a solid long-term investment for both clubs.
El Khannouss might fancy a Spurs move
Tottenham could be a more attractive destination for the player. They are a bigger club with more ambition. They will be able to offer him Champions League football as well. It will be interesting to see if he decides to join them instead of Crystal Palace.
The player is young enough to improve further, and regular gametime in the Premier League could help him fulfil his potential. Thomas Frank and Oliver Glasner are excellent managers who could nurture him into a future star.
The midfielder needs to join a club where he will play regularly. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham or Crystal Palace can provide him with the assurances he needs.
