Levy makes an early push as Spurs pursue 6’5″ goalscoring center-back

He has attracted curiosity from all throughout Europe.

With Tottenham Hotspur‘s season taking off, Daniel Levy is already looking ahead to the summer, expressing interest in a young defender making an impression for one of Europe’s best teams.

Spurs maintain their drive for Europe.
While early rumors of a title drive have died down, Ange Postecoglou‘s team have recovered calmness in recent weeks as their devastating injury crisis has abated, allowing them to continue their impressive inaugural campaign under the Australian coach.

Recent victories over Brighton and Brentford could be crucial at the conclusion of the season, with the North London club now three points clear of sixth position and only five points away from the coveted Champions League spots. With a game in hand on their opponents, it is extremely certain that wherever Spurs finish in May, it will be a significant improvement on last season’s poor eighth-place result.

Despite a noticeable improvement in Spurs‘ fortunes under their new manager, this season has not been without its challenges. As is obvious given Postecoglou’s emphasis on a high defensive line, his men at the back are left to cover large amounts of ground with significantly more high intensity sprints than an ordinary Centre-back in England’s top flight.

Spurs currently concede the most goals in the top six; if they are serious about a future title push, they will need to improve at the back, particularly in terms of the depth of skill behind first-choice duo Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven. Rivals Arsenal leads the league in clean sheets with ten, double Tottenham‘s total.

With this in mind, it is not surprising that Levy has already set his sights on one of Europe’s most promising young defenders.

Spurs are looking for a goal-scoring defender.

According to Sport Witness, Roma defender Dean Huijsen, who is currently on loan from Juventus, is a target for Spurs this summer. According to the site, the London club is one of several major European teams interested in the 18-year-old. Premier League rivals Manchester United, PSG, and Atletico Madrid are among those interested, but only the two English teams have made an attempt.

Despite the possible struggle for the teenager’s signature, Spurs appear to be in the lead, with reports earlier this month claiming that Levy was willing to spend €30 million (£26 million) to get the center-back. While his current contract expires in 2028, Juventus is thought to be willing to part ways with the superstar for a reasonable fee.

Huijsen has only made eight top-flight games for Roma, but his effect has been significant. Standing at a towering 6 feet 5, his goal-scoring ability captures the attention of even the most casual observer.

Huijsen’s two league goals this season add to his remarkable record in both youth and professional football. With a goal every four games in the Juventus junior system, the teenager is an exceptional skill for his age.

With the Postecoglou project seeking to inject some much-needed enthusiasm into the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, few players would be more eye-catching than Huijsen.
