The north London giants were interested in signing the French international earlier in the year but ultimately snapped up the services of Radu Dragusin from Genoa.

Todibo has become one of the best centre-backs with the ball in Ligue 1. In the last campaign, the Frenchman completed 90% of his passes and he was also brilliant in defense for Nice.

The 24-year-old won almost 60% of his ground and aerial duels, making 1.9 tackles and 7.1 recoveries. first Barcelona The man was also impressive with his ability to clarify his lines.

With such statistics, you are well prepared to deal with the intensity of the first division. The Spurs could return for him after their initial approach this winter, but the big question is whether they can sign him.

Todibo would not want to sign for another club without the guarantee of playing. Postecoglou currently has Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven as his usual options in central defence.

Dragusin struggled to start during the second half of the previous campaign until Van de Ven was moved to left back due to Destiny Udogie's injury. Todibo may not have the same fun.

Therefore, Spurs have a lot of work ahead of them to sign the Frenchman ahead of United and Atlético, who could guarantee him a starting place. Nice owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe is also a part-owner of United, which could improve their prospects of landing Todibo.
