Tottenham will hold talks to sign Brandt from Borussia Dortmund
Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly ready to start talks over a deal to sign Borussia Dortmund midfielder Julian Brandt, according to a Spanish outlet. Transfers.
The 28-year-old has been a key player for BVB over the years since arriving from Bayer Leverkusen in 2019. He enjoyed a productive campaign last season, scoring seven goals and registering 11 assists in 26 starts in the Bundesliga.
Now, the German giants have had an inconsistent first half of this season, but the midfielder has been in good form, contributing nine goals in all competitions. He helped his team beat Wolfsburg yesterday by scoring a goal and providing an assist.
Transfers They claim that Spurs have begun to explore the possibility of signing Brandt and are ready to begin talks to complete the deal with negotiations likely to progress in the winter window.
Dortmund could be willing to negotiate to sell him, but Tottenham are not the only club interested in him, as other European clubs are also in this race and are willing to offer tough competition to Ange Postecoglou's team in this deal.
Brandt to Tottenham
The German international's existing deal at Signal Iduna Park is set to expire in 2026, so if they fail to tie him down to a new deal then he could be available on a cut-price deal next year.
Brandt: valued at around £29 million per Transfer market – is a versatile midfielder, as he is number ten due to characteristics, but he also feels comfortable in the box-to-box role. He is technically sound, can make passes between the lines, has a good eye for long-distance passes and is also efficient at set pieces.
James Maddison is the only attacking midfielder Spurs currently have. Dejan Kulusevski can provide cover in this position if necessary, but is more comfortable on the wing.
Therefore, signing a new midfielder could be a smart decision and Brandt would be a smart acquisition if he was bought as he is an experienced player.
However, it will be interesting to see if the north London club finally take a concrete approach to lure Brandt away from Signal Iduna Park in January or at the end of this season.
