Tottenham Hotspur have been heavily linked with RB Leipzig’s⛦ Josko Gvardiol in recent months.

Back in May, the claimed that Spurs were looking at the Croatia international as an alternative♊ to Alessandro Bastoni.

Now, with the January transfer window on the horizon🧸, speculation linking Tottenham with Gvardiol has intensified.

A player of Gvardiol’s cal🍸ibre will no doubt hℱave multiple suitors after him.

And in this case, Chelsea are apparently also in pursui✅t.

Indeed, the Blues are reportedly working hard to sign the 20-y﷽ear-old.

But contrary to some speculation, it looks as though Chelsea haven’t won the r🗹ace, which is good news for Tottenham.

Fabrizio Romano, speaking on his YouTube , shared the latest on the state 🐬of play involving Gv🌞ardiol.

‘Open race’

“I wanted to mention Josko Gvarᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚdiol,” said Romano. “This centre-back from Croatia’s national team, top player, really.

“There is no 45 million euro release c🌳lause in his contract, that was not true.

“The contract was extended with Leipzig in September, but the player knows that, in 2023, he will go🌃 to a top club.

“Let’s see if it🍌’s going to be January, let’s see if it’s going to be summer in this case.

“Chelsea are actively working on it but there are alꦚso other clubs.

“Notﷺhing is agreed yet between Chelsea and Gvardiol, and so open raღce.

“Clubs from Spain, clubs from England keeping♓ an eye on this top player.

“Almost impossible for Italian clubs and thiﷺs is why Gvardiol will be one to watch.”

Romano previously deemed Gvardiol “one𒅌 of best talents in the world in general and in his position probably the best talent in this moment”.

Tottenham’s defence could c🌃ertainly do with bolstering, and the talent would no doubt take it to the next level.
