Report: Spurs-linked winger is in talks to join another London club instead

According to The Guardian, Tottenham target Antonio Nusa is now in talks over a summer switch to Crystal Palace.

Antonio Nusa has been linked with Spurs a lot

Nusa has been turning a lot of heads with his inventive creative play and his dribbling ability at Club Brugge over the last couple of years.

The Norway international has been one of the most coveted young players in Europe for quite a while, with Tottenham thought to be one of his admirers.

Fichajes reported earlier this summer that Spurs could reignite their interest in the 19-year-old after their failed approach for him in January.

The report claimed that the Lilywhites are keen to add depth to their forward line and that the club views Nusa as a ‘key piece for their future project’.

Crystal Palace make the first move for Antonio Nusa

The outlet added that Ange Postecoglou’s men could face ‘fierce competition’ for the attacker, with Man City, Arsenal and Chelsea also said to be monitoring the player.

However, if The Guardian’s latest update is to be believed, it is Palace who have made the first move for Nusa this summer.

It is revealed that the Eagles have identified the winger as a potential replacement for Michael Olise, who is now close to completing his move to Bayern Munich.

The publication adds that the Club Brugge star is expected to be available for a fee of around £25m this summer.

Spurs Web Opinion

It seems like Tottenham have now abandoned their pursuit of Nusa despite showing concrete interest in the winger in January.

I wonder if that has to do with concerns about the 19-year-old’s fitness after he failed a medical with Brentford.
