Tottenham Hotspur willing to pay Victor Nelsson’s €25m release clause

Tottenham Hotspur are currently without a permanent manager with Ryan Mason serving as their acting boss. 

However, they are still trying to make some early signings ahead of the 2023-24 season. 

Spurs have been credited with an interest in Victor Nelsson who has been earning rave reviews with his performances in Turkey. 

The 24-year-old joined Galatasaray in 2021 and so far has made 78 appearances in all competitions at the club. 

He has also been a key member of the Turkish side this season, starting an incredible 31 league matches. 

His performances have sparked interest from several top clubs but it looks Tottenham have won the race for him. 

As per Sporx, the North London outfit initially made a €13m bid for the Danish footballer but that was immediately turned down by Galatasaray. 

However, Skorer (via Asist Analiz) are now reporting the English outfit are ready to pay the defender’s €25m release clause. 

The Lilywhites are set for a major squad overhaul this summer after a highly disappointing 2022-23 campaign. 

They look in need of defensive reinforcements as they aim to make a comeback next season. 

Spurs are currently sitting eighth in the Premier League table with 57 points from 37 matches. 

Saturday’s 2-1 home defeat to Brentford have put them in serious danger of missing out on any form of European football for next term. 

They will now travel to West Yorkshire to take on Leeds United in their final fixture of the season.
