While Tottenham will be looking to sign a new centre-back in the January transfer window, they are also thinking about their long-term future on the market.
We say this because a report from Belgium, via DH, states that Spurs are interested in signing Ajax U21’s Stanis Idumbo-Muzambo.
The player’s contract in the Netherlands is set to expire at the end of the season, and that’s why Tottenham are coming forward.
The idea would be for him to join in January and be with the first-team until the end of the season before assessing him at the end of the campaign.
The decision would then be made to either stay and fight for a spot in Ange Postecoglou’s plans or find him a loan to get him minutes.
Tottenham aren’t the only interested side, though, as AS Monaco are also after him, and are ‘ready to sign him’.
Their plan would be to then loan him out to Cercle Brugge, but that isn’t something the 18-year-old wants at this moment in time.
DH adds that he ‘needs to decide in these next few days’, with Tottenham currently in the lead.
