Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with Juventus talent Samuel Iling-Junior in recent weeks.

For instance, The Independent recently claimed that Spurs are keen on bringing the 20-year-old back to the Premier League.

Now, Calciomercato journalist Daniele Longo reported on X that Tottenham ‘will make an attempt’ to sign Iling-Junior in January.

Calciomercato also published an article on their website, claiming Spurs will be a ‘danger’ to Juve with regards to the pursuit of their player.

‘Samuel Iling-Junior and a future that’s yet to be written,’ they wrote.

‘The 2003-born English midfielder could bid farewell to Juve as early as January to accept Tottenham’s approach.’

Iling-Junior has struggled for game time this term. He has made just appearances in all competitions and has just 113 minutes of football under his belt.

Likened to Bayern Munich star Alphonso Davies, Iling-Junior could be a bargain signing for Tottenham.

Calciomercato recently claimed that Juve have requested around €15-20million (£13-17million) for Iling-Junior.

All in all, it looks like a no-brainer for Tottenham, who are without Manor Solomon and Ivan Perisic for the foreseeable future due to injury.

Iling-Junior is just 20 years old, incredibly talented with a high ceiling, versatile and has English football experience.

In addition, he seems keen on a return to the Premier League, his contract’s up in 2025, his club appears open to selling, and Spurs could end up paying less than £20million.

Meanwhile, Tottenham really need to bring in reinforcements, and given it’s tricky to sign really top players in January, Iling-Junior would really fit the bill as a player whose career could be revived by Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou at N17.
