Tottenham Hotspur defender Juan Foyth should be on the radar of Brendan Rodgers’s Celtic in the January transfer window.

According to The London Evening Standard, Juan Foyth is prepared to leave Tottenham Hotspur in the January transfer window, and Celtic should make a move.

Foyth has struggled to make an impact at Tottenham since his move from Estudiantes for a transfer fee reported by The Daily Mail to be worth £8 million.

The 20-year-old central defender, though, is a very talented and promising young player, and Celtic should look into the possibility of signing the Argentine on loan.

The Argentina Under-20 international – who earns £18,000 per week as salary, according to Spotrac.com – is a very talented footballer, which is why Spurs signed him in the first place.

Celtic are not looking great defensively, and the Glasgow giants could do with a young and hungry young player.

With Filip Benkovic admitting to The Scottish Sun that he could return to his parent club Leicester City in the January transfer window, the Hoops could be short of a central defender for the second half of the season.

Even if Benkovic stay at Celtic Park beyond January, signing a player with Foyth’s desire to play regular football and obvious talent can only be good for Brendan Rodgers’s Celtic.
