5 players Tottenham Hotspur is linked with ahead of 2020 summer transfer window
Tottenham Hotspur have been overseen by manager Jose Mourinho for 26 matches in all competitions after taking over for Mauricio Pochettino. The team’s record has been a disappointing 11W-5D-10L under the manager and the club will certainly dip into the transfer market in the summer as Mourinho moulds the team into one that can play his style of football. Tottenham Hotspur supporters are anticipating the team’s return to the pitch.

A host of names have already been linked with a move to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Depending on how much money Daniel Levy earmarks for transfers in the summer, several of these players could sign for Spurs.
Ben Chilwell
Leicester City left-back Ben Chilwell is one of the hottest properties in English football currently. The full-back is 23-years old and his addition would secure the left-back position for the next few years. Chilwell was a part of Leicester City’s magical league title win in 2015. He is more of a defender than attacking full-back, but has still tallied four assists and two goals in 28 matches in all competitions.
Raul Jimenez
Tottenham Hotspur’s continued reliance on Harry Kane has shown once more this season. Kane’s regular injury problems have resulted in him missing significant amounts of time on the pitch. Signing Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Raul Jimenez in the summer would take the pressure off of Kane and add a proven Premier League striker to the team. The Mexican international has scored 22 goals and tallied 10 assists in 44 matches in all competitions this term.
DayotUpamecano
RB Leipzig centre-back Dayot Upamecano is one of the most sought-after defenders in football. The 21-year-old Frenchman has less than 18 months on his current contract, which means RB Leipzig may be forced to sell him this summer. It is also believed that Upamecano has already decided to leave the German club. Spurs got to see the hulking central defender first-hand in the Champions League this season. Upamecano was part of the RB Leipzig team that shut out spurs in the second leg, 3-0.
Marcel Sabitzer
Reports have claimed RB Leipzig midfielder Marcel Sabitzer is Tottenham’s No. 1 transfer target ahead of the offseason. The 26-year-old Austrian has been a major part of the Red Bull set up. Like Upamecano, Sabitzer was a part of the Red Bull player pipeline. He played for Red Bull Salzburg before joining the Leipzig outfit. Sabizter has scored 15 goals and tallied eight assists in 35 games in all competitions this term. He scored twice against Spurs in the second leg of RB Leipzig’s Champions League tie and has been wearing the club’s arm band since January.
Gareth Bale It is the potential transfer that will never die. Every transfer window approaches with the possibility of Gareth Bale returning to north London. It is once again apparent that Real Madrid want to get rid of Bale. Zinedine Zidane and Bale have no relationship whatsoever, according to Spanish media, but a return to the Premier League is unlikely due to Bale’s incredibly high wages. Bale earns £600,000-a-week and a move to the Chinese Super League is believed to be the only option for the player until his contract runs out in Madrid.
