Tottenham and Liverpool interested in signing Jamie Gittens
Tottenham hotspur and Liverpool They are reportedly interested in signing Borussia Dortmund star Jamie Gittens, according to Soccer insider information.
The Lilywhites made some new acquisitions in the summer to strengthen the squad and attack was one of the areas they prioritized strengthening.
Dominic Solanke joined the club for a record fee of £65 million from AFC Bournemouth and Wilson Odobert was also signed; Additionally, Timo Werner was brought in on loan to add depth in wide areas.
The German has been a player in Ange Postecoglou's team and was given the opportunity to play amid Son Heung-Min's injury absence before the international break.
However, his performances were not up to the standard to suggest that the north London club would sign him permanently at the end of this season. It is therefore likely that he will return to Leipzig next summer. So, it seems that Tottenham are analyzing options to sign a new winger.

According to the report of Soccer insider informationSpurs have shown interest in signing Gittens and could make a concrete approach to secure his signature next year.
Dortmund are willing to sell the 20-year-old and want at least £40m for him, but the German giants do not want to let their star leave in January and will only allow him to leave next summer.
However, the report claims that Liverpool are also interested in buying him, so it will not be easy for the north London club to attract the striker to the English capital. Besides, Chelsea They are also planning an attack on the young man.
The striker has been in the spotlight having enjoyed a stellar start to this season, contributing six goals in nine appearances in all competitions.
Gittens likes to be deployed on the left side of the attack, but the Reds are already well stocked in this area, so he would not get enough first-team action at Anfield if he joined them.
Therefore, it would be better for the Englishman to join the Lilywhites than the Merseyside club if he eventually leaves Signal Iduna Park before next season.
It will be interesting to see if Liverpool will finally go toe-to-toe with Tottenham in a deal to sign Gittens next year.
