Tottenham Targets New Star, Moving Past Robertson for Fewer Fouls
Tottenham Hotspur is realigning its focus in the transfer market after a potential move for Liverpool’s Andy Robertson fell through. The Scotland international was considering joining Spurs but remains with the Reds due to their shortage of defenders. This setback comes as Tottenham looks to strengthen its defense following Ben Davies’ long-term injury.
New Targets for Tottenham: Hugo Bueno
With Robertson unavailable, Tottenham is setting its sights on Wolverhampton’s Hugo Bueno. Despite Wolves currently struggling at the bottom of the Premier League, Spurs are eyeing Bueno as a valuable addition. Reports indicate that Spurs are interested in acquiring the 23-year-old before the upcoming transfer deadline.
Player Performance and Availability
Bueno has emerged as one of Wolves’ standout performers this season. He has made 20 appearances and shows potential that appeals to Tottenham. The left-back is also noted for committing fewer fouls compared to Tottenham’s Djed Spence, making him a compelling option for Spurs’ defensive needs.
- Current Fee: £20 million
- Appearances This Season: 20
- Fouls Committed: Fewer than Djed Spence
Strategic Advantages of Signing Bueno
Recruiting a player from a struggling team may raise eyebrows, but Bueno presents a low-risk option with significant resale potential. Many believe that Bueno could thrive alongside higher-caliber teammates at Tottenham. Meanwhile, Spence has been utilized more effectively in advanced attacking roles, thus further emphasizing the need for a dedicated left-back.
With a reasonable price tag of £20 million, Tottenham views Bueno as an opportunity that could be easily realized before the transfer window closes. This strategic move aims to bolster the team while maintaining a focus on player development.
