Spurs signing Ben Godfrey can allay fears over Jan Verthongen
Spurs are being linked with a move for Norwich City defender, Ben Godfrey, Jose Mourinho is keen on a £50m move.
It would be quite the sum for Spurs to shell out on the 22-year-old. Godfrey♑ is enjoying his first season in the Premier League. Despite Norwich propping up the table, the defender has once again impressed.
18 Premier League appear♛ances for Daniel Farke’s men have given Godfrey the chance to strut his stuff in the top-flight. However, a knee injury has kept the defender from playing much of late.
But for Spurs, the signing of 🎀Godfrey could solve a long-term problem f🅺or the club.
That problemᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ comes in the form of Jan Verthongen. It is being widely reported that the Belgian could be on his way out of the club. Indeed, Ajax are one of the clubs
A solid addition who can only improve
Few players have enjoyed a rise qui🧸te like Godfrey has. In the 2017/18 season, Godfrey was playing his football with Shrewsbury Town.
Following that success, he returned to Norwich a🌸nd was immediately placed at the heart of the defence by Daniel Farke.
It proved a shrewd mo🃏ve from Farke, as Godrey helped the Canaries win the Championship and land themselves a place back in the Premier League last year.
Manchester United have previously been
That sort of interest, as well as the speed at which he has developed, proves that Godfrey is a player who clubs like Spurs sh🐬ould𒈔 have their eye on.
Verthongen replacement
While Jan Verthonghen is a fine footballer in his own right and has been excellen🥂t for Spurs, there’ll come a time when he has to be replaced.
If the current rumblings turn out to be true, he’ll need replacing sooner rather than later. Godfrey, then, would be ide🐟al to step into the Spurs squad.
At just 22, he has ample time on his side to♑ further hone his craft. Crucially, Toby Alderweireld has stayed with Jose Mourinho’s men. This in itself would benefit Godfrey, who could once again learn quickly from one of the best.
With Norwich looking like being relegated this term, it seems only right, then, for Spurs to make the🗹ir move for one of the countries most promising defenders.
