They really want him’: Tottenham are desperate to sign ‘special’ £26m player now – Fabrizio Romano
Tottenham Hotspur are looking to wrap up a deal for Club Brugge forward Antonio Nusa ‘as soon as possible’.
That’s according to Fabrizio Romano, who has shared the latest on Tottenham’s interest in the Norwegian starlet.
Spurs have been locked in talks with Club Brugge over a deal to sign Antonio Nusa over the past few days.
Recent reports suggested that Tottenham are confident about completing a deal to sign the 18-year-old and want terms agreed this week.
Should Tottenham get this one over the line, Nusa is likely to remain in Belgium until the end of the season before moving to north London this summer.
And Romano has claimed that Spurs are desperate to sign the youngster as they believe he’s a ‘special’ talent.
Tottenham desperate to wrap up Nusa deal
Speaking to GiveMeSport, Romano shared the latest on Nusa’s potential move to Tottenham.
“They really want him because they believe Antonio Nusa is going to be a special player,” the transfer insider said. “He is a special talent in a position where Tottenham need someone for the present and future, so that is why they are pushing.
“They also know that there are other clubs interested in Antonio Nusa, especially in England, so they want to be fast and close the deal as soon as possible.
“Tottenham are going to have new contacts with Club Brugge in the next days again for Nusa. I think this is going to be their big focus in the next days.”
Spurs is trying to get an early advantage on rivals by signing Nusa this month, and Chelsea is reportedly interested as well.
Numerous elite teams have expressed interest in the winger due to his performance for Brugge.In 27 games this season, Nusa has three assists and four goals.
In addition, the attacker, who is valued at £26 million, has four caps for Norway and scored on his debut in July.
Although it is unlikely that Nusa would join the Spurs team before the summer, this would still be a wise decision on the part of the North London team.
A player who is excellent in one-on-one scenarios is what Tottenham lacks, and Nusa would give Postecoglou that kind of threat down the left side.
