Tottenham in battle with Man Utd to sign Rooney Bardghji

Tottenham Hotspur is reported to be in a battle with manchester united on a deal to sign FC Copenhagen star Rooney Bardghji, according to the transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.

The 18-year-old has burst onto the scene after putting in impressive performances for the Danish team this season. However, it has been suggested that Copenhagen have decided to keep the youngster out of the first team in recent times following his decision not to sign a contract extension despite entering the final 18 months of his contract.

speaking in Caught offside, Roman have reported that Man Utd are interested in signing him and have even previously sent scouts to closely observe him in action. Therefore, they could try to secure his signature this summer by taking advantage of their current situation.

However, the journalist claims that securing Bardghji's signature will not be easy for the Red Devils, as Tottenham are also interested in securing his signature and have also followed his development in recent times before making a possible move in the summer.

Besides, Roman claims that, along with Man Utd and Tottenham, BarcelonaBayern Munich and Juventus have also expressed their interest in signing him.

Battle

Romano said:

“With 18 months left on his contract and currently not playing, Roony Bardghji's future will depend on Copenhagen, we will see what they decide to do but at the moment there is no agreement on a new contract.

“The clubs that sent scouts to follow him are Tottenham, Man United, Barcelona and Bayern. These four clubs appreciate it and Juventus also plans to send their scouts soon.”

The striker, valued at around £8 million per Transfer market – could be available for an affordable price if he doesn't sign a contract extension in the coming months.

Bardghji is a highly talented player and has the potential to become a top striker. Therefore, he would be a big coup for Spurs or Man Utd going forward in the long term if either club signs him.

However, it will be interesting to see who will ultimately win the race to sign Bardghji if Tottenham take on Man Utd for this deal during the off-season.
