Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Alejandro Garnacho from Manchester United.
According to TBR Football, they are looking at the Manchester United attack as a potential replacement for South Korean international Son Heung-min.
Alejandro Garnacho to replace Son?
Son has been linked with the move away from Tottenham in recent weeks, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up. Clubs from the MLS and Saudi Arabia are keen on securing his signature. He has been an exceptional performer for Tottenham over the years, and they need to replace him adequately. Signing the 21-year-old South American could prove to be a wise decision.
He is not a regular starter for Manchester United, and he will look to leave the club in search of regular playing time. The move to Tottenham could be ideal for him. Furthermore, he is an elite talent with a bright future, and he could develop into a top-class performer for Tottenham with the right guidance.
Regular football at the London club could help him fulfil his potential.
Garnacho is available at a discount
The report claims that Tottenham have been keeping track of the player since January, and they were quoted £70 million for the attacker during the winter transfer window. However, Manchester United are prepared to sell him for just £40 million this summer.
It will be interesting to see if Tottenham can finalise the deal. Garnacho has the attributes to develop into a quality player for them, and he could easily justify the £40 million investment in future.
He is capable of operating on either flank, and he will add goals and creativity to the side. The opportunity to join a Champions League-level club will be quite exciting for the player, especially if Spurs can offer him regular playing time.
He will certainly hope that the two clubs can work out an agreement quickly.
