Tottenham make approach to sign £41k-a-week Man United target this summer

Tottenham are looking to improve their defensive options at the end of the season and they have identified Tosin Adarabioyo as a potential target.

The Fulham defender will be a free agent in the summer and he has been linked with clubs like Tottenham and Manchester United. A report from TEAMtalk claims that Tottenham have made an approach to the defender regarding a potential summer move. It will be interesting to see if they can convince the player to join them and snub a move to Manchester United.

It is no secret that Tottenham need to bring in defensive reinforcements at the end of the season and Adarabioyo could be a quality addition. He is well-settled in the Premier League and he has the attributes to thrive at Tottenham. He will add physicality and pace to the Tottenham back line.

The North London outfit have employed a free-flowing attacking system and Adarabioyo would be a good fit for their high defensive line. His recovery pace could prove to be vital for Tottenham.

Signing a player of his quality and experience on a free would represent an excellent bargain and it will be interesting to see how the situation develops.

The defender currently earns close to £41,000-a-week at Fulham and a move to Tottenham will certainly see him pocket a lucrative contract. The North London outfit have financial resources to offer him a bumper payrise and it remains to be seen whether all parties can secure an agreement.
