Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly looking to sign a talented young goalkeeper in the January transfer window.
A report by Football Insider has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur are looking to add more depth to the goalkeeping unit, and they want to sign a young goalkeeper from the lower leagues.
Fraser Forster will be out of contract at the end of the season and Tottenham need a quality backup goalkeeper. Signing a talented young keeper would be a wise decision. He could be available for a reasonable amount of money and he is unlikely to push for regular starts either. They need a reliable understudy to Guglielmo Vicario who is the first-choice goalkeeper at the club.
It will be interesting to see if they can bring in the right additions.
The opportunity to join Spurs will certainly be quite exciting for young players from the lower leagues and it would be a major step up in their career. They would get to test themselves in the Premier League and Spurs could provide them with playing opportunities in the cup games.
Spurs could use more depth
Tottenham need a deeper squad to do well across multiple competitions and having adequate cover for their key players should be imperative.
It will be interesting to see if they can improve their squad during the January transfer window. Apart from a backup goalkeeper, they should look to invest in a quality central defender as well.
It has been a mixed season for Tottenham so far and they need to improve in order to secure Champions League qualification for the next season.
Tottenham have an exciting project and a talented squad at their disposal. They have shown a willingness to invest in talented young players in recent months and they could help the young goalkeeper fulfil his potential with them as well. Most young players will be attracted to the idea of joining them and it remains to be seen how the situation unfolds.
Ange Postecoglou could nurture a talented young goalkeeper into an important first-team player for Tottenham in the coming seasons. Not signing an established name and investing in potential could prove to be cheaper as well.
