One of four clubs to scout Skov

♋Tottenham have joined West Ham, Watford and Wolves in scouting FC Copenhagen winger Robert Skov, according to . With 22 goals in 39 games in the Danish Superliga, it is easy to see why the London club has joined a list of potential suitors.

ꦛHe could join Christian Eriksen in representing his country in Tottenham colours, though he lacks the international experience of his potential team-mate given that the winger was left out of the Danish World Cup squad having made the preliminatory 35 man selection.

Brace on trial

♐In further transfer news, 17-year-old Notts County forward Kion Etete has shone during a week long trial period with Tottenham, according to the . After a brace against West Ham for the club’s under 18s, the Premier League outfit are said to be interested in a permanent move.

🍷That could see Etete join up with the club’s youth system on a permanent basis, despite having made his first team debut for the League Two club earlier this season under former Liverpool midfielder Harry Kewell before his dismissal.

Holtby admits his struggles

🦩One man who did make that move as a youngster is former midfielder Lewis Holtby, who is now fighting for promotion from 2. Bundesliga in Germany with Hamburg. Now 28-years-old, he has reflected on his time at White Hart Lane.

⭕“It was definitely frustrating though because I had good spells where I felt I deserved more game time. But I did expect more of myself, I had more expectations to succeed. I thought I had the quality but maybe I was a bit naïve. I made too many rash decisions,” Holtby told .

ཧHe made 42 appearances for the club between 2013 and 2015, though he spent most of the 2014/15 campaign on loan in Germany with current side Hamburg.
