The Mirror report that Ange Postecoglou will sit down with Archie Gray today as Tottenham aim to complete a deal for the highly-rated Leeds United youngster.
It has been a whirlwind of a 24 hours in the Archie Gray transfer saga. At first, it seemed as though Brentford had won the race for Gray’s signature after agreeing personal terms and organising a medical with the Leeds starlet (The Athletic).
However, reports this morning shed more light on the situation, revealing that Leeds had rejected Brentford’s proposed payment structure (The Athletic).
It didn’t take long for sources to report that Spurs were lining up a hijack to sign Gray themselves, having been long-term admirers of the midfielder (Football Insider).
Reports from David Ornstein, Fabrizio Romano and Alasdair Gold have since revealed that while Tottenham are confident about their chances of landing Gray this summer, talks are still at an early stage.
Now, The Mirror report that Ange Postecoglou is set to conduct some talks of his own, between his punditry duties for ITV at the European Championships.
The Spurs boss is reportedly planning to have a conversation with Archie Gray himself today as Spurs continue to work on a deal in the background.
The report also adds that the deal could be ‘on the fast track’ as Leeds United look to balance the books before the PSR deadline today.
Spurs Web Opinion:
This deal feels like it’s moving fast now. I wonder whether Joe Rodon or Oliver Skipp talks will be opened at the same time, even if they are not technically included in the same transfer.
Archie Gray looks like the perfect fit for the right-back role, as he is well used to inverting into midfield with Leeds. He is also versatile enough to cover a range of positions, which is perfect for Spurs.
