Tottenham Hotspur are one of the Premier League sides interested in signing Aaron Ramsdale from Bournemouth this summer, according to a report from the Daily Mail.

Spurs go into the summer with issues to address between the sticks. The Daily Mail reports that Michel Vorm is set to leave the club when his contract expires.

Meanwhile, Hugo Lloris has come in for criticism at various stages throughout the season, with questions being asked of the Frenchman following Spurs’ Champions League exit on Tuesday night.

The Daily Mail reports that Tottenham and Chelsea are both interested in signing the Cherries youngster.

It is suggested that Ramsdale is deemed to be a potential understudy to Lloris. Meanwhile, the Mail suggests that he is likely to provide competition for the Blues’ £72 million man Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Ramsdale has been superb at times for Eddie Howe’s men. And given his age, you could understand why the likes of Spurs and Chelsea may be looking at him with one eye on the future.

The Mail notes that Bournemouth will struggle to hold onto the youngster should they be relegated.

TBR View – Ramsdale may fancy chances at Tottenham

It may be a gamble for Jose Mourinho to back Lloris as his number one heading into next season. The club captain has struggled to recapture his old form over the last couple of years.

So perhaps Ramsdale may be excited about an opportunity to move to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

He may fancy his chances of not having to wait too long to get a chance at being the number one at Spurs. Lloris’s form has unfortunately hinted that he may not be the long-term answer any longer.
