Tottenham could shift focus to Manchester United misfit if Savinho deal falls through – Opinion

Tottenham Hotspur are in urgent need of a new left-winger following Heung-Min Son’s departure

There is an urgent need at Tottenham to bring in a new left-winger that could fill the void left behind by Heung-Min Son. The Lilywhites are short in manpower in the wide areas, and Daniel Levy must do everything he can to add more depth up front as Thomas frank takes charge at N17.

It was reported earlier that Spurs have identified Manchester City star Savinho as the perfect player to replace Heung-Min Son. The Brazil international made huge strides in the Premier League last season, and has already caught the attention of the Lilywhites. Thomas Frank is keen to add the player in his squad, and has also promised to give him a vital role in the team.

Tottenham are prioritising a move for Manchester City winger Savinho currently.

Not only that, but Tottenham have also promised Savinho regular game time at N17, something that has been hard to come by for the winger at Man City. This has tempted the player to make the move to Spurs and revive his chances of getting selected for the national team. However, the report also states that Manchester City have no intentions of selling the 21-year-old and have blocked his move for the time being.

If no solution is reached in the coming days, then Daniel Levy must start looking elsewhere for a new winger.

Should Tottenham shift their focus to Man Utd outcast Jadon Sancho?

Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho has endured a torrid time at M16 ever since his high-profile move from Dortmund was guaranteed. The England international has shown no glimpses of his potential in the Premier League, and has time and again faced disciplinary issues at Carrington. He has also been sent out on loan to Dortmund and Chelsea during his time with the Red Devils.

It is fair to say that the 25-year-old’s career at Old Trafford is all but over after being left out by Ruben Amorim from the pre-season tour. With time running out in the transfer window, Manchester United are hoping that the England international can find a club for this season as they look to look to part ways with the winger for as low as £25m.

This is where Tottenham can come into the picture and try to land the 25-yer-old. The Lilywhites urgently need a left-winger that can bolster the squad depth for this season. And signing Sancho would mean that the Lilywhites are signing a player that has the experience of playing on the biggest stages.

Will Jadon Sancho fit in at Tottenham?

On his day, Jadon Sancho can cause heavy damage to the opposition through his elite dribbling skills and his ability to take on the defenders. However, the England international has struggled to find form in recent years, and that has also plummeted his value severely. But moving to N17 might just be what the 25-year-old might need to revive his career.

The winger likes to operate as an inside forward as it lets him get on his stronger foot more than not. He also tends to hug the touchline while receiving the ball before cutting inside and beating the defender. Sancho possesses elite dribbling skills and tends to play the final pass instead of shooting while he is inside the box. The Man United winger is also a fast runner and likes to play on the shoulders of the defender.

Jadon Sancho is not the type of profile Tottenham boss Thomas Frank is looking for.

However, there are many negative aspects of his game that might rule out his transfer to Spurs. Firstly, the winger has disciplinary issues and his ongoing problems at Manchester United make it tough for the Lilywhites to take a chance on him. Also, he is on high wages and Spurs might have to break the wage structure to afford him. The lack of effort and inability to score goals regularly is another reason why Thomas Frank would not want him in the squad.

So all-in-all, Tottenham should stray away from Jadon Sancho even if the Lilywhites fail to sign Savinho in the coming days.
