Journalist Paul Brown has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur are one to watch on Anthony Gordon as they are very interested in the winger.

According to Football Insider, Tottenham are keen on luring Gordon to the club this summer, and they are about to submit a bid for the 21-year-old.

However, Spurs are not the only Premier League outfit interested, as Chelsea are also keen on him, and after having two bids rejected by Everton, they are prepared to line up a third offer of around £60m.

However, even though Chelsea are set to make another bid for Gordon, Brown spoke to GiveMeSport and claimed that Spurs are still very interested and could reignite their interest before the window closes.

He said: “Tottenham are one to watch on Gordon because they came in for him earlier in the window and they’re still very interested, so it would not surprise me if Spurs got into the mix before the end of the window.”

TIF Thoughts on Brown’s comments…

Spurs have already signed seven players this summer, totalling just under £108m in fees, so it will be interesting to see if they do go in for Gordon despite Chelsea reportedly preparing a monster bid.

Antonio Conte opted to bring in Richarlison this summer, who can offer support to any of the current front three. The Brazilian is yet to start for Spurs in their opening three Premier League games, so Gordon might be thinking he would not be guaranteed a regular starting role in the side if he did join the white side of north London – although he may have the same problem at Chelsea.

However, Everton have not got off to a good start in the league, picking up just one point from a possible nine, so the young English winger might be keen to get out of Goodison Park to join a more successful team and fulfil his potential.
