Man United could move for 20-year-old Tottenham are also watching
According to Fussball News, Tottenham may have to contend with competition from Manchester United for RB Salzburg starlet Samson Baidoo.
Who is Samson Baidoo?
Several talented young players have come through Salzburg over the last few years and Baidoo looks set to be the next one to make waves in Europe, with the 20-year-old’s reputation now blossoming.
Spurs have been credited with an interest in the centre-back, with HITC revealing a few days ago that the North London club had sent scouts to Austria to watch the youngster in action.
The outlet added that the Lilywhites could face competition from other Premier League sides, who are also keeping tabs on the Leipzig youngster.
Manchester United also like Baidoo
If Fussball News’ latest update is to be believed, one of those is Man Utd, with the Red Devils now taking a ‘close look’ at the defender.
The publication adds that with Erik Ten Hag’s men looking for reinforcements at the back, they could push ahead with a move for Baidoo if he keeps impressing at the Red Bull Arena.
Tottenham are short on numbers at the back this season, with Ben Davies filling in as the fourth-choice central defender, despite historically being more of a left-back.
Spurs Web Opinion
One would expect Tottenham to sign a young, up-and-coming defender of Baidoo’s profile as fourth choice in January.
Conversely, Ange also has the option of promoting Alfie Dorrington to that role or continuing to use Ben Davies before reassessing the area next summer.
