Tottenham Hotspur are believed to be active in the transfer window. They will compete to sign Leicester City’s best player this season.
Heading into the November international break, Leicester City sit 15th in the table. With all things considered, this is not a bad position to be in by any means.
After the break, of course, Steve Cooper will be eager to kick on and put together some serious winning momentum. Just before the international break, there were a few disappointing results which might have been avoided with more caution and preparation.
If Leicester City stay up this season, they will be active in the transfer window to strengthen in key positions. However, they might be fearful of Tottenham, with similar plans.
Tottenham want to sign Leicester’s best player this season
According to a report from Fichajes, Leicester City are willing to pay Brighton and Hove Albion’s €50m (£41.4m) valuation of Facundo Buonanotte. However, they will face competition from Tottenham Hotspur, who also wish to sign Buonanotte.
This season, Facundo Buonanotte has been the best player at Leicester City. Unfortunately, he is only on loan and Leicester have broken rule number one of never falling in love with loaned players.
That said, it is pretty impossible not to become fascinated by Buonanotte. The Argentine, commonly dubbed as the Midlands Messi, is the full package for Leicester City. He is multifaceted and looks comfortable in most midfield or attacking positions.
Considered a bright prospect for the future, Leicester City might have first dibs when it comes to signing Buonanotte. However, Brighton holds all the cards here, since there is no option or obligation for Leicester to buy him when his contract ends.
Technically speaking, Brighton do not have to sell Buonanotte if they don’t want to. Depending on what happens between now and the end of the season for the Seagulls, they might wish to keep him all to themselves. They owe no club anything – This is important to consider.
‘If I had to pay for a season ticket at one of my former clubs, I would choose Tottenham’: William Gallas says Spurs better to watch than Arsenal
Former Arsenal and Tottenham defender William Gallas has made clear his belief that Spurs are better to watch than the Gunners this season.
William Gallas is a divisive figure in London having played for Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea in an impressive Premier League career.
The former France international tends not to pull his punches when assessing the game, and he might well have annoyed Arsenal fans with his latest reflections on Mikel Arteta’s team.
The Gunners have won just one of their last five matches in all competitions, drawing blanks in defeats to Newcastle and Inter and attracting some unwanted attention for their struggles in attack.
And Gallas has admitted that, of his former clubs, Ange Postecoglou’s Spurs are now the easiest on the eye.
Asked which of his old teams he would most like a season ticket for, Gallas told Prime Casino: “Oh, that’s a horrible question because at the moment, Arsenal are not playing well.
“Chelsea are improving, but they still have a long way to go. If I had to pick a team right now to watch, then it would be Tottenham.
“Tottenham, in the second half against Aston Villa, they were superb. They were playing the football that they played at times last season. Son was magnificent before he came off. I don’t know why he came off, but he came off.
