Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Benjamin Nygren from Celtic at the end of the season.
The 24-year-old winger has been in great form this season, scoring 20 goals and providing eight assists. He was recently named the Scottish club’s player of the year and could be a very lucrative signing for the north London club. He will add goals and creativity to the team. He can function as an attacking midfielder or wide forward.
The opportunity to play for Tottenham could be exciting for him. It would be a step up in his career and an opportunity to test himself in the Premier League. Tottenham also face competition from Aston Villa, according to TEAMtalk.
The player’s contract runs until 2029 and Celtic are in a good position to negotiate his departure. They are likely to demand a premium for him. It remains to be seen how the situation will develop.
Arne Engels is also rumored to be leaving Celtic, with the Scottish club aiming to recoup more than £50m for the two players.
Tottenham certainly have the financial wherewithal to complete this deal. But first we have to ensure safety in the Premier League. If we lose in the summer, we cannot hope to acquire high-quality players.
Aston Villa are aiming to qualify for next season’s Champions League and could be an attractive move for the 24-year-old Celtic star.
They need to add more goals and creativity from the wide areas and Nygren would be ideal. The 24-year-old is at the peak of his career and will be aiming to break into action in England.
