Newcastle United and Tottenham are keen on Jesper Lindstrom, as Eintracht Frankfurt could sell the attacking midfielder for the right price.
According to Ekstra Bladet via Sport Witness, Eintracht Frankfurt could sell Jesper Lindstrom for the right offers in the summer. Newcastle United and Tottenham are among the clubs keen on the Danish attacking midfielder among other Premier League teams, including Arsenal and Liverpool.
Jesper Lindstrom was on the list of several Premier League clubs around the January window after his impressive season until then. The Danish star has continued performing at the highest levels, thus making him an attractive target for the summer window.
Many clubs remain interested in the 23-year-old Bundesliga midfielder, who has seven goals and four assists in 22 games this season. The report claims, amid growing admiration from Premier League sides, the Danish star could depart for the right offer.
By that, they claim Eintracht Frankfurt would want at least €35-40 million in return, which could rise if there’s a transfer battle. The 23-year-old Bundesliga midfielder has interest from Liverpool and Arsenal, but more clubs are keen.
Tottenham are also reportedly chasing the attacking midfielder as they seek a creative presence in their squad. Rodrigo Bentancur’s long-term injury would let them rely on Uruguayan far less, maybe with some caution. Hence, the idea of investing in a player who could facilitate the midfield and attacking unit well.
The price range certainly falls within Tottenham’s radar, and an approach could become a possibility. Whether they can attract the 23-year-old Bundesliga midfielder to the club remains the bigger question, considering there’s interest from Arsenal, who will play Champions League football.
There’s also the previous interest from Newcastle United, who are in the market for a player of a similar profile. Eddie Howe wants to bring some reinforcements that help their attacking unit with a different dimension. The Magpies could also shift a few of their current attackers, which brings up the need for additions.
The price range will certainly excite Newcastle as they could have the upper hand over their rivals. Add the possible place in next season’s Champions League, and the Magpies become a top attraction for the best of players around the market.
Lindstrom has the profile to thrive in the Premier League and could elevate the quality of those clubs mentioned as suitors. He might have already outgrown Frankfurt, and the move will come across as the right decision for his career.
