Pascal Strujk could leave Leeds United at the end of this season.
The 26-year-old central defender is under contract with the Premier League club until 2027, so he could be available for a handsome fee in the summer.
According to a report from TEAMtalk, Aston Villa are planning to submit an offer for the Dutch defender in the summer. Tottenham and Newcastle are also lurking in the background and they could make a move.
It remains to be seen what will ultimately become of the 26-year-old central defender. He has proven his quality in the Premier League and could be a very useful addition for all three clubs. The opportunity to join Aston Villa, Tottenham or Newcastle would be attractive to him. It would be a step up in his career.
Aston Villa are pushing hard to qualify for the Champions League and will aim to add more quality and depth to their squad if they finish in the top four. Adding defensive depth could be ideal for them. They have a competitive team and quality manager. Strujk will be eager for the opportunity to play for them again next season.
Tottenham, on the other hand, have had a disappointing season and will be hoping to bounce back strongly next year. We need quality reinforcements to tighten up the back in the summer. If Strujk joins the club, he will be able to contribute defensively.
As for Newcastle, they need long-term replacements for Dan Byrne and Fabian Schaal. The Dutch defender could be an ideal signing for them. He is at the peak of his career and now is the right time to take the next step.
