Tottenham Hotspur are keeping tabs on Can Uzun ahead of a potential move.
The 19-year-old has done well for Eintracht Frankfurt, and he has six goals and five assists to his name. Uzun is an attacking midfielder who can operate on the flanks as well.
Spurs could use more creativity in the side and the Frankfurt ace would be a superb addition for them.
As per TBR Football, Spurs sent scouts to watch the player in action during the midweek. Liverpool were up against Frankfurt, and multiple clubs were running the rule over the young midfielder.
Can Uzun is highly rated across Europe
Graeme Bailey revealed on TBR: “This boy is ‘special’ was the comment I received from a scout attached to one of the Premier League’s top clubs.
“Uzun might be considered under the radar to some but he is a huge talent. He has become one of the most talked about players in the Bundesliga and he really is a huge talent.
“There is not a major club who doesn’t have him on their radar.”
It will be interesting to see if Tottenham follow up on their interest with an offer to get the deal done. Uzun would be a long-term investment for them. Even if they have to pay a premium now, the deal could be worth doing.
Spurs could use Uzun
Uzun will add technical ability, flair, goals and creativity to the side. Spurs need quality players like him if they want to keep fighting for trophies every season.
Meanwhile, the opportunity to join Spurs will be exciting for the Bundesliga sensation as well. He would get to compete at a higher level, and Thomas Frank could help him develop further. Regular football in England could accelerate his development as well.
It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
