Tottenham Hotspur are looking to add more creativity and technical ability in the middle of the park, and they have identified Ibrahim Maza as a target.
The 20-year-old Algerian midfielder has done quite well in the Bundesliga with Bayer Leverkusen, and he is on the radar of Arsenal as well. The player could cost around €55-€65 million. At the end of the season, it will be interesting to see if Tottenham is willing to pay that kind of money for him. The midfielder would also command wages of around €4-6 million annually.
Ibrahim Maza could help Spurs improve
They need more quality going forward, and the 20-year-old will help create opportunities for them. Tottenham already have players like James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski at their disposal. It remains to be seen whether they can accommodate Maza in the starting lineup. Maza has been described by FussballDaten as a player who “combines the vision of Mesut Özil with the pace of modern football.”
The talented young midfielder will not want to sit on the bench at the London club. He needs to play regularly at this stage of his career in order to continue his development and fulfil his potential. Tottenham will need to provide him with a clear and defined role in the starting lineup if they want to convince him to join the club.
Maza is a player in demand
There is no shortage of interest in the playmaker, and multiple clubs are hoping to secure his signature. The asking price could be a bit of a problem, but the player has the potential to justify the investment in future.
The report claims that the player’s agent has recently held transfer talks with clubs in Madrid and London. It remains to be seen where he ends up eventually.
