It’s fair to say that Tottenham remain a challenging team for anyone to face but, when it comes to winning trophies, they simply can’t do it.
As the wait continues for silverware to arrive back at Tottenham, their team is constantly spoken about as being quality and the best they’ve had in years.
Whilst that is true, they’re running a risky game with smaller contracts and not signing as many top players, meaning they really could be getting better, like the title contenders around them.
With a number of players out of contract in the summer, specifically defenders it seems, The Sun suggested that Tottenham will plot a move to sign Bournemouth’s Nathan Ake.
The Dutchman is a top draw defender that has been vital for the Cherries this season, playing every single minute of Premier League action and keeping four clean-sheets in that time.
It would be a big loss for Bournemouth but what could signing Nathan Ake mean for Tottenham…
Toby Alderweireld free to leave
The Belgian defender is out of contract in the summer and it seems Tottenham are now resigned to losing him.
With Nathan Ake arriving in his place however, the worry of losing such a good defender will be short-lived as 23-year-old Ake is on his way to becoming one of the league’s best defenders.
Future looks brighter in defence with Nathan Ake
Tottenham are already a side that likes to give youngsters a chance to shine and with Ake experienced in the Premier League, it could be the perfect match to join the two together.
Alongside the likes of Davinson Sanchez and Juan Foyth, they could be the defenders to take Spurs forward for years to come, so this is a move they must complete.
