Spurs are putting a lot of effort into completing a £25 million January transfer for wonderkid Antonio Nusa of Club Brugge, sources have told Football Insider.
Spurs are reportedly offering a deal that would see the 18-year-old acquired permanently before being immediately leased back to Brugge for the balance of the 2023–24 season.
Postecoglou’s team has now presented a plan to reach an agreement prior to the deadline of February 1st.
Chelsea made an attempt to sign Nusa last summer, but the Belgian team declined. They want to maximize Nusa’s worth.
After negotiations over night, Spurs are now well-positioned to seal the deal in the last ten days of the January window.
Both in his own country of Norway, where he is already a full international, and in Belgium, where he has captured the attention of onlookers, Nusa is regarded highly in the Pro League.
In 26 games this 2023–24 season, the winger, who often plays on the left, has three goals and three assists.
Nusa only agreed to a contract extension last year that would have expired in June 2027.
Brugge is reportedly eager to keep him with the team until the summer as they compete for championships in the Europa Conference League this season.
Since joining the team from Stabaek in 2021, he has played in 62 games and scored six goals.
Additionally, the teenager has already made four appearances for Norway, contributing four assists and one goal.
In the upcoming months, Tottenham is eager to bolster their attacking lineup and is specifically looking for players under the age of 24.
Postecoglou’s team is now sixth in the Premier League following their most recent match, a 2-2 tie with Manchester United on January 14.
