“Tottenham in Shock Talks for Jack Grealish: Sensational Transfer in the Works!”
Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly in discussions with the agent of Manchester City’s Jack Grealish for a potential January transfer to North London, after exploring the possibility this past summer.
Spurs Eye Attack Reinforcements Ange Postecoglou is said to be looking to strengthen his attacking options in the upcoming transfer window. Reports suggest the Tottenham boss wants to add a versatile player who could compete with James Maddison and Heung-min Son for a starting spot.
According to Football Transfers, Spurs are admirers of Grealish and are now in talks with his representatives. The City star has reportedly dropped in Guardiola’s rotation, and after nearly signing him over the summer, Tottenham are eager to try again in January.
Johan Lange Leading the Effort Football Transfers reveals that Johan Lange, who played a key role in Grealish’s transfer to Manchester City during his time as Aston Villa’s sporting director, is leading Tottenham’s approach. Grealish is said to appreciate Lange’s professionalism, and the two have maintained a strong relationship. Lange previously discussed a potential move to Tottenham with Grealish in the summer, but at the time, Grealish opted to stay and compete for his place at City.
However, it was also reported that a wage gap of £3 million separated what Grealish was asking and what Spurs were willing to pay.
Is This Move Feasible? Several factors cast doubt on Tottenham’s pursuit of Grealish. For one, Maddison is currently a core player in Spurs’ lineup, and bringing in Grealish to compete for the same position might be seen as unnecessary. Additionally, with Spurs already having depth on the left wing, Grealish’s style—requiring more touches and not fitting the high-press profile typical of Postecoglou’s wingers—may not align with the team’s needs.
Lastly, at 29, Grealish falls outside the age profile of Tottenham’s usual transfer targets under their current strategy.
