# Tottenham: Spurs eyeing Anton Stach for transfer swoop

**[Tottenham Hotspur](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/) have conducted scouting missions to assess Anton Stach ahead of a potential transfer swoop, according to a report.**

### The Lowdown: Spurs eyeing midfielder

Tottenham already have plenty of options in central midfield, with the likes of Yves Bissouma, Rodrigo Bentancur and Pape Matar Sarr at [Antonio Conte](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tag/antonio-conte/)‘s disposal, however that hasn’t stopped them being linked with new options.

Bentancur and Bissouma are currently sidelined with the former not expected to return for a while following [ACL surgery in Spain.](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/premier-league-spurs-team-news-rodrigo-bentancur-update/)

In the January transfer window, it was [reported](https://www.givemesport.com/88101951-chelsea-koulibaly-liverpool-vlahovic-transfer-news-premier-league/) that Spurs cast an eye over Fulham’s Joao Palhinha, and given that Bentancur has now been [ruled out](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-11785483/Tottenham-midfielder-Rodrigo-Bentancur-faces-NINE-MONTHS-following-knee-surgery.html) until November, Conte may look to bolster his options in the engine room this summer.

### The Latest: Stach profiled

According to a report from [90min](https://www.90min.com/posts/liverpool-tottenham-teams-scouting-mainz-anton-stach), the Lilywhites have been keeping a watchful eye on Stach, having conducted scouted missions during 2023, however other [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) clubs are believed to be interested.

Liverpool, Newcastle United and West Ham United have also watched the midfielder this year, meaning Spurs could face competition for his signature.

### The Verdict: Get it done?

Football scout Jacek Kulig has [described](https://twitter.com/FTalentScout/status/1525499512298651651?s=20) the 24-year-old as ‘underrated’, and given his performances over the course of the past year, that is definitely a fair assessment.

The 6 foot 4 colossus has demonstrated his talent in so many different areas of the game, [ranking](https://fbref.com/en/players/0f59a7bf/Anton-Stach) in the 96th percentile for aerials won per 90, while he is also in the 94th for interceptions, and the 97th for assists.

As such, it is clear that the [two](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/anton-stach/nationalmannschaft/spieler/344069)-time Germany international is a well-rounded player, capable of pitching in with the defensive side of the game when necessary, while he is also a threat on the front foot, which is indicated by [nine](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/anton-stach/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/344069) assists in 32 games last season.

Stach would be an excellent addition to the Tottenham midfield, and he is at the right age to be a long-term success at the club, so Conte should continue to monitor his availability between now and the end of the season.
