Tottenham plot January move for midfielder who joined their rivals in 2024

Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for the Chelsea midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.

The 26-year-old joined Chelsea in July 2024, but he has struggled for regular game time at the London club. The player is yet to start a single Premier League game for Chelsea and he has been linked with a move away from the club in January.

According to CaughtOffside, clubs like Arsenal, Tottenham, Manchester United, Aston Villa and Newcastle United are keeping tabs on his situation and they could be willing to provide him with an exit route next month.

The midfielder needs to play regularly at this stage of his career and sitting on the bench at Chelsea is unlikely to benefit him. He would have expected to play more often when he joined the Blues. He was a key player for Enzo Maresca during their time together at Leicester City, but the Italian manager has not given him opportunities at Stamford Bridge.

Tottenham could certainly use a creative midfielder like him who will chip in with goals and creativity. He is capable of operating as a box-to-box midfielder as well as an advanced central midfielder. Tottenham need more depth in the side during the second half of the campaign and the 26-year-old would be a useful acquisition.

It will be interesting to see if the North London club can secure his services for a reasonable amount of money. If Chelsea are unwilling to sell the player permanently midway through the season, a loan move could be ideal for the player as well. He needs to be playing regularly in order to get his career back on track.

The 26-year-old clearly does not have a future at Chelsea, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up. He was heavily linked with a move to Tottenham before he joined Chelsea.
