If you know anything about football, you already know that the Tottenham Hotspur Football Club is one of the oldest in the world. After all, the club was founded 135 years ago in 1882. The team currently plays their home games at Wembley Stadium, which is capable of holding 90,000 spectators. Over the years, the Spurs have accumulated many titles, including eight FA cups, two League titles, and four League Cups. They’re one of the hottest teams in the league and they could be on the verge of getting even better. This week, it was reported that the team had reportedly placed a huge bid for Alassane Plea.

Reports indicate that the Spurs have provided the 25-year-old attack from Nice with a formal offer. The London club was linked to Plea earlier this week. Now, they’ve stepped up their interest and have submitted a £23 million bid for the midfielder. This could be a huge step for the football club and it is one that fans will definitely want to keep an eye on. After all, the French player is one of the highest rated right now. The previous season with Nice was an exceptional one. During the previous season, Plea made 35 appearance and netted 16 times.

He helped carry his team to the UEFA Champions League qualifications. Plea joined Nice in 2014. He previously played with Lyon. Since joining Nice, he has scored 44 times. It was really only a matter of time before he got on the Hotspur’s radar. In fact, it is reported that other potential buyers have pursued the youngster as well. This natural goal scorer could make a huge impact. He could also help shoulder some of the burden placed on Harry Kane. Together, their combination of skill and heart could help make Tottenham even better in the coming years. Could they boost the team’s odds? If you’re say yes and you’re a betting man, you should click here for a good time.

It has also been reported that a Bundesliga outfit has been interested in Plea. However, they have not made any formal big just yet. In other Tottenham Hotspur news, reports indicate that Manchester United has shut down an inquiry from the Hotspurs about recruiting winger Anthony Martial. This French born player had been said to be eyeballing a move out of Old Trafford, since he failed to secure a place on Jose Mourinho’s team. The Manchester Evening News believes that the Spurs have been watching Martial closely.

They report that the Hotspurs had an enquiry dismissed into the player. They went on to say that Manchester United attempted to force the Spurs to pay roughly £56 million for Martial back in 2015. Around this time, the winger has relocated from Monaco to Manchester. When Martial’s contract ends at the end of next summer, he always has the option of playing with United for an extra year. From the recent news, it is clear that Tottenham Hotspur is working diligently to bring new talent to the team.

They’re also close to opening their new stadium. Suffice to say, fans of the Hotspurs will be eager to see what happens in the near future.
