Report: Spurs might miss out on £55m midfielder due to poor relations with club – The Spurs Web – Tottenham Hotspur Football News
According to GiveMeSport, Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing Georgiy Sudakov this summer but may find it difficult to pull the deal off due to their poor relationship with Shakhtar Donetsk.Tottenham are interested in Sudakov this summer.
Sudakov is seen by many as the next big superstar to emerge from Ukranian football, with the 21-year-old scoring 10 times and registering six assists across all competitions last season (Transfermarkt).
The midfielder, who is a number eight by trade but can operate in a deeper role, is thought to be attracting interest from a number of sides, including Spurs.
GiveMeSport points out that Ange Postecoglou is looking to add more firepower to the middle of the park and has now set his sites on the Ukrainian international.
However, Spurs are not thought to be the only ones eyeing a move for Sudakov, who is also alleged to be on the radars of Arsenal, Liverpool and Napoli.
Spurs have a bad relationship with Shakhtar Donetsk.The report says that the midfielder can be signed for a fee of around €65m (£55m) but Tottenham face one major roadblock in pushing the deal through.
The North London club’s relationship with Shakhtar is quite poor after the latter accused the former of taking advantage of the ongoing Ukraine war to sign Manor Solomon on a free transfer.
I cannot see Shakhtar being too keen on doing business with Tottenham after what happened with Solomon, especially when Sudakov is of interest to so many clubs around Europe.
