Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly interested in the Manchester City attacking midfielder James McAtee this summer.

According to a report from GMS, the player is valued at £40 million, and Tottenham do not have any problems with the asking price. It will be interesting to see if they can get the deal done.

He is capable of slotting into the attacking midfield role as well as on the flanks. He will help create opportunities for his teammates and find the back of the net as well. McAtee has been labelled as an exceptional dribbler by Carl Asaba.

Meanwhile, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has previously claimed that the 22-year-old is a player “everyone loves”. He could be a long-term asset for Tottenham, and it will be interesting to see if they can sign him.

James Maddison is sidelined with an injury, and they need an alternative. The Manchester City star could be the ideal acquisition. He needs regular gametime, and the move to North London would be ideal for him as well.

Tottenham will be able to provide them with Champions League football for the upcoming campaign, and he will look to fight for trophies with them. Sitting on the bench at Manchester City will not benefit him, and he should look to sort out his future soon.

The £40 million asking price might seem expensive right now, but the player is highly rated in England, and he is a promising young talent. He could justify the investment in the long run.

The 22-year-old was exceptional for England U-21 during the Europeans earlier this summer, and he will look to compete at a high level at the club level now. Regular football at Tottenham could help him cement his place in the England senior team as well. It will be interesting to see how the

Tottenham motor towards signing of ‘special Liverpool talent’ as Frank holds ‘direct talks’

Tottenham manager Thomas Frank and Liverpool boss Arne Slot

Tottenham Hotspur have been given belief that a deal for Harvey Elliott is there to be done after positive talks with Thomas Frank, while a transfer journalist has revealed why Liverpool will ‘reluctantly’ allow the 22-year-old to move on.

The Liverpool star looks likely to follow a raft of other stars in departing Anfield this summer after failing to convince Arne Slot he was worthy of regular football last season. And while Elliott continued to make important contributions off the bench, his only two starts in the Premier League last season came after the Premier League title was already mathematically won.

Despite a lack of minutes for the club he supported as a boy, Elliott‘s stock remains high after helping England Under-21s win the UEFA Under-21s Championships, and being crowned Player of the Tournament.

And since returning from his summer break, the attacking midfielder has found himself linked with moves to Aston Villa, Newcastle, West Ham and, most recently, RB Leipzig.

However, with Tottenham having lost James Maddison for a large portion of the season to a torn ACL injury, it is Tottenham who are pressing hardest for a deal.

And after it was reported that Spurs are ‘making significant progress’ towards a deal after Frank held direct talks with his entourage, including the player’s Liverpool-supporting father, there is now a growing feeling that a move to north London is a strong possibility for the former Fulham youngster.

With Champions League football also on offer – something Leipzig cannot provide – there is now a strong sense of optimism that a firm offer for a player, branded a “special talent” by former Reds striker Neil Mellor, will be launched in the coming days.

Spurs backed to sign Harvey Elliott as Liverpool demands emerge

It is understood that Liverpool are seeking a £40m package to sell Elliott this summer, though any arrangement would need to contain a buy-back clause, triggered after two years.

Alternatively, the Reds have told sides they would accept a £50m fee without any such clause attached. Spurs would, understandably, prefer the latter, though will try and drive Liverpool’s asking price down.

Speaking on the Inside Track podcast, journalist Pete O’Rouke thinks a deal is there to be done for Frank’s side.

“Reluctantly, Liverpool would consider letting Elliott go for the right fee,” O’Rourke stated
