Tottenham convinced £30m Conor Gallagher alternative would be perfect for them

Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a number of midfielders ahead of the summer transfer window.

With Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg‘s future at Spurs appearing increasingly uncertain, the Lilywhites are likely to look for a replac🦂ement in the summer.

And while Conor Gallagher has been ൩heavily linked with a switch to Tottenham, a different plaౠyer has apparently emerged as a prime contender for a Spurs move.

The player in question is Atalanta’s Ederson, a player whose name has also been doing the rounds – albeit less than Galꦐlagher’s 🅺– in recent months.

Nowꦫ, according to , Tottenham are now ‘totally convinced’ that the Brazilian talent wouꦺld be ideal for them.

The report🌠 claims Spurs are ‘certain’ that Ederson is capable of making the grade in the Premier League after tr♉acking his progress over the last two seasons.

Apparently, ‘dramatic improvements in his game’ have led to Tottenham serioওusly considering a bid for him at the end of the 2023/24 campaign.

In addition, Ange Postecoglou has reportedly been particu💞larly impressed by Ederson’s ability to regain possession and quickly get the ball�� to Atalanta’s attackers.

Furthermore, the 24-year-old’s wide-ranging skillset💖 would make him a seamless fit into the Tottenham man’s style of play, added the report.

Tottenham convinced Ederson would be a success for Spurs

It’s great to see suc✅h a definitive report – as far as speculation goes – with regards to Spurs’ interest in a summer target.

Atal🅠anta’s Ede♏rson – not to be confused with his namesake at Manchester City – has enjoyed a swift rise to prominence since arriving in Europe.

He joined Italian club Salernit൲ana from Brazil’s Corinthians in January 2022, and within 🌠six months, he was on the way to Atalanta for around .

In terms of current price tag, recentlꦗy claimed that the Bergamaschi are requesting a fee of £30mi♉llion.

Tottenham aren’t alone in the race for Ederson though. He has also been linked with Newcastle, though at this moment in time, you’d fancy Spurs to🔜 have the edge in a race for his services.

Tottenham are currently fifth in the table and pushing for a Champions League place, while the Magpies are✨ 13 points behind Spurs in 10th spot.
