Tottenham should rival Chelsea for Denis Suarez in January

As reported by Marca recently, Chelsea are considering a move for Denis Suarez in January.

The Spaniard is enduring a frustrating time at the Nou Camp at the moment, and cannot break into Ernesto Valverde’s starting XI.

He’s only made one appearance for the club so far this season, and there’s a suggestion he could be allowed to move on in the next transfer window.

Marca claim Valencia could also be in the hunt to sign Suarez.

But one club who should be throwing their hat into the mix is Tottenham Hotspur, who appear set to lose two first-team midfielders.

Mousa Dembele, injured for the rest of the calendar year, and Victor Wanyama are two players Mauricio Pochettino is supposedly willing to let go in January.

Dembele is out of contract next summer and there appears to be no new deal in the pipeline, while Wanyama has struggled with various injuries problems over the past year.

Tottenham should rival Chelsea for Suarez

Spurs should consider moving for Suarez themselves in January.

Suarez is a great technical player who can pass the ball with conviction.

He may not have brute strength like Dembele or Wanyama, but he can inflict harm on teams in different ways.

He could come in and forge a great partnership with Harry Winks, who also possesses good technical attributes.

Given Suarez’s current position in the pecking order at Barca he shouldn’t cost an absolute fortune, and Spurs definitely need reinforcements for the engine room going forwards.

It’s likely Mauricio Pochettino would be a great coach for Suarez, who really does need someone to just give him the chance he deserves. He is fine player with a lot still to offer.
