Tottenham 'preparing' a concrete strategy to sign Szymanski
Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly ready to step up their efforts to sign Fenerbahce star Sebastian Szymanski this summer, according to the Turkish outlet. Aksam.
After joining the Yellow Canaries last summer, the 24-year-old has enjoyed a promising campaign in the Turkish top flight this season, scoring nine goals and registering eight assists in 30 league appearances.
So it seems that the Polish international's eye-catching performances for Fenerbahce have attracted the attention of several big clubs in Europe, and Spurs are among those who have shown interest.
According to the report of AksamTottenham have closely followed the midfielder's performances in recent times and, having been impressed by his performances, are 'preparing' to make a concrete approach to secure his service this summer.
The report further claims that Fenerbahce want a 'club record fee', in the region of £24m, to sell their star man so that Spurs can acquire their target's signature for reasonable money.

However, Aksam He claims that Napoli are also interested in him and, along with the Azzurri, Milan are also interested in buying him. The report says that the Rossoneri have already submitted a formal proposal worth around £15m to sign the midfielder, but Fenerbahce rejected the offer and Stefano Pioli's side plan to return with an improved proposal. The Lilywhites will therefore face fierce competition from Italian clubs to secure any potential deal for the Poland international.
Having recently joined the club, Szymanski still has more than three years left on his current contract, so Fenerbahce are in no rush to sell their star this summer. Spurs will therefore likely need to match Yellow Canaries' £24m asking price to sign their target.
Szymanski is a versatile midfielder as he can play in multiple positions in the middle of the park. He can create opportunities for forward players, has the efficiency to finish his chances and also works hard out of possession.
So the Fenerbahce star could be a shrewd signing for Tottenham should they buy him. However, it will be interesting to see if the north London club ultimately opts to take a concrete approach to acquiring his service in the coming years. transfer window.
