Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly set their sights on a deal for Hull City left winger Jaden Philogene.
Having emerged from Aston Villa’s ranks, the 22-year-old midfielder move to Hull City last summer for £5 million. In just 20 appearances, he’s contributed to an impressive 14 goals, with eight strikes of his own and six assists.
His pivotal role in Hull City’s push for promotion to the Premier League hasn’t gone unnoticed, drawing interest from clubs across Europe.
For Spurs, securing Philogene’s signature would bolster their attacking options, addressing depth concerns and adding firepower to their flanks. His style of play aligns well with manager Ange Postecoglou’s attacking philosophy, promising to inject more threat into their forward line.
However, Aston Villa’s buy-back clause adds a twist to the tale, potentially complicating Spurs’ pursuit. With a £15 million clause only active if Hull achieves promotion, Villa may face stiff competition if other clubs enter the fray. Yet, Spurs remain at the forefront of the race, determined to secure Philogene’s services and strengthen their squad for the challenges ahead.
