Getafe eyeing Ashley Phillips swoop

Tottenham Hotspur defender Ashley Phillips has been linked with a move away from the club, and La Liga side Getafe are keen on him.

According to an update on Sky Sports, La Liga outfit Getafe are plotting a raid on Tottenham for 19-year-old highly-rated defender Ashley Phillips, and it remains to be seen whether they can get the deal done.

Tottenham are prepared to send the player out on loan this summer, and he could be a useful acquisition for Getafe. Joining the La Liga club would be ideal for the player as well. He needs ample first-team exposure at this stage of his career.

Sitting on the bench at Tottenham is unlikely to benefit Ashley Phillips, and if the Spanish outfit are prepared to provide him with certain assurances, joining them would be ideal for him.

Phillips must leave Tottenham on loan

Ashley Phillips will look to continue his development in the upcoming campaign, and the opportunity to play in La Liga will be quite exciting for him. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham are prepared to sanction his departure before the window closes.

The North London outfit are well stocked in the defensive unit right now, and they will not be able to provide him with ample game time. Tottenham will hope that he can improve with first team exposure and return as a better player next summer. They are loaning out most youngsters, with Alejo Veliz also moving to La Liga.

Ashley Philips is a prodigious young talent with a bright future. Spurs must focus on his development and nurture him carefully. If he manages to fulfil his potential with them, he could be a key player for the club in the long term.

The 19-year-old will certainly hope to make his mark in La Liga if he ends up joining Getafe this summer. It will be an exciting step in his career and it remains to be seen whether he can adapt at that level and perform at the desired standards. Regular football in La Liga could accelerate his development and help him fulfil his tremendous potential.
