# Tottenham Hotspur: Arnaut Danjuma now on Spurs’ radar

**Villarreal attacker Arnaut Danjuma is now on the radar of [Tottenham Hotspur](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/) ahead of the summer transfer window, claims [transfer insider](https://twitter.com/DeanJonesSoccer?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor) Dean Jones.**

### **The Lowdown: Danjuma’s season**

Since making the [switch from Bournemouth last year,](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/arnaut-danjuma/profil/spieler/355861) the 25-year-old has gone on to leave an incredible impression on the Spanish top-flight. In [34 games for the La Liga outfit](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/arnaut-danjuma/leistungsdaten/spieler/355861), the Netherlands international has netted an impressive 16 goals.

As a result of his domestic and European form – he scored [six](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/arnaut-danjuma/leistungsdaten/spieler/355861) times on route to the Champions League semi-finals – a number of[transfer rumours](https://www.espn.co.uk/football/blog-transfer-talk/story/4636484/live-transfer-talk-man-unitedliverpool-eye-move-for-villarreal-winger-arnaut-danjuma) have arisen linking the winger with a move back to England.

According to a report by [90min](https://www.90min.com/posts/tottenham-officials-watch-pau-torres-arnaut-danjuma-liverpool-loss), Fabio Paratici and co. sent a number of club officials to watch Danjuma in the first leg of Villarreal’s semi-final tie against Liverpool earlier this month.

### **The Latest: Jones’ claim**

With all this information, transfer window expert Jones believes that Danjuma is on Paratici’s summer wish list.

Speaking with [GiveMeSport](https://www.givemesport.com/88005604-tottenham-exceptional-45m-star-is-on-contes-radar-at-hotspur-way), he claimed:

*“They’ve got Danjuma on their radar. He’s a good player, but I don’t believe that he’s going to increase the ceiling of what this Tottenham team can achieve, so I think this is one they will wait and see on.”*

### **The Verdict: Great signing**

During his stint along the south coast, Bournemouth manager Jonathan Woodgate was full of praise for the 25-year-old, asserting that he is [“an exceptional player”.](https://thisisfutbol.com/2021/04/blogs/championship/bournemouth/bournemouth-jonathan-woodgate-praises-arnaut-danjuma/)

Former European Golden Shoe winner Kevin Phillips has also reiterated this rhetoric, claiming that Danjuma [“is a nightmare for defenders”](https://www.footballinsider247.com/danjuma-is-a-rare-talent-who-can-dazzle-for-liverpool-after-inside-sources-transfer-update-pundit/), as [“he can hurt any defence with his pace and directness”.](https://www.footballinsider247.com/danjuma-is-a-rare-talent-who-can-dazzle-for-liverpool-after-inside-sources-transfer-update-pundit/)

With Antonio Conte’s side hoping to secure a top four [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) finish and a place in next season’s Champions League, Paratici will be eyeing the likes of Danjuma, as the Lilywhites look to bolster the quality in their squad as they plan for a busier schedule next year.
