Tottenham Hotspur’s pursuit of Juventus sensation Samuel Iling-Junior has got a significant boost, as the Bianconeri are willing to allow the youngster leave the club, according to transfer journalist Rudy Galetti.
The teenager earned his professional debut for Juventus last year, but he has struggled to get into Massimiliano Allegri’s starting eleven in recent seasons, appearing in only a few games this season.
Despite the 20-year-old’s recent troubles at the Allianz Stadium, Spurs have stated their intention to sign him after being sufficiently impressed by his performances for Juventus.
Now, Galetti of X has revealed that Juventus are willing to allow their star man depart if a reasonable deal comes in, which is a significant boost for Tottenham to recruit the Englishman.
Galetti stated:
“Juventus, no change in their transfer plans: the Bianconeri are working on the possible farewell of IllingJunior to approach Sudakov.”
Tottenham will get Iling-Junior.
Tottenham have been plagued by injury issues in their wide areas, with Manor Solomon, Ryan Sessegnon, and Ivan Perisic all out since the start of the season.
Son Heung-Min, meanwhile, is anticipated to be unavailable for selection in the forthcoming encounters after reuniting with his national teammates for the AFC Asian Cup.
Tottenham currently lacks depth on the flanks, so buying a new option to enhance that position in January could be a wise idea.
Iling-Junior, who is valued at roughly £9 million by Transfermarkt, is quick, strong, technically sound, can dribble past opposing defenders in tight situations, can create chances for teammates, and works incredibly hard without possession.
He is a talented player with the potential to become a top-class player in the future, therefore if Tottenham were to sign him, he would be a wise signing.
It would be intriguing to watch whether Tottenham decides to make a formal bid for the Juventus star in January or next summer.
Meanwhile, following a disheartening loss to Brighton and Hove Albion, Tottenham have again back to winning ways, defeating Bournemouth last weekend.
Spurs will try to extend their winning streak against Burnley in the FA Cup before facing Manchester United in the Premier League.
