Tottenham in ‘advanced’ talks for signing – Player ‘would agree’ to join Spurs this summer
On Tuesday, Radio Sevilla stated Tottenham Hotspur are pushing to sign Sevilla’s Youssef En-Nesyri. It was also indicated that a deal could be sealed for a fee between €20m and €30m in the summer window.
Vamos Mi Sevilla FC relay Radio Sevilla’s claim and then provide their own information on Tottenham’s pursuit of the 27-year-old.
The La Liga side have to balance their books before the end of this month, and the striker is their great asset to raise funds.
Sevilla have found a ‘last-minute ally’ in the form of Tottenham, after they came forward to sign the player.
It’s claimed the Morocco international ‘would agree to leave’ for Spurs in the next window. The report adds that the latter would offer around €25m for him, and the talks between the two clubs are ‘advanced’, to try to reach an agreement.
Sevilla sold Bryan Gil to the north London club in 2022, and they are said to be keen on bringing the 23-year-old Spaniard back to the club.
The report now states Tottenham tried including Gil as part of a deal for En-Nesyri, but Sevilla only want cash… to improve their finances.
West Ham United are also keen on En-Nesyri, and it’s possible for the Hammers to step up their efforts after Tottenham entered the battle.

Journalist suggests ‘world class’ player could leave Tottenham, it would not be a surprise
Tottenham Hotspur have to undergo some serious changes this summer.
Spurs, once again, finished outside of the top four, and their form towards the end of the season showed just how many changes are needed this summer.
Ange Postecoglou hasn’t pulled any punches in making it clear that he wants change at Tottenham, and speaking on KS1TV, Steve Kay has suggested that there could be a high-profile departure at Spurs.
Indeed, the journalist says that he wouldn’t be shocked if there were some big departures in the Premier League this summer, naming Heung-Min Son as a player who he thinks could go.

Heung-Min Son leaving Tottenham wouldn’t be surprising
Kay spoke about Son and a potential Spurs departure this summer.
“Yeah, don’t be surprised if you don’t see some big players go in this window. You know, Son, we’ve said about Salah leaning towards staying, but when there are players like Eze and Olise about, they are the future, Son and Salah aren’t the future anymore,” Kay said.
Son isn’t getting younger
As much as it would hurt to see Son leave Spurs, there is a logic behind letting the attacker go.
Son turns 32 next month, and at that age, you’re getting towards the end of your career.
The South Korean is still a fantastic player, but he probably doesn’t have that long left at the top level.
If Tottenham can sell Son for a good price and replace him with a younger model, that would make good business sense.
Of course, letting Son go this summer wouldn’t be the best for the short-term, but with the way football clubs are run these days, the long-term is, more often than not, the primary focus.
The ‘world class’ attacker remains one of Spurs’ most important players, but this could be a situation to keep an eye on heading into the summer.
