Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with Everton’s Ross Barkley in the summer transfer window.

Ross Barkley celebrates scoring the third goal for Everton

Ross Barkley is one of the best attacking midfielders in the Premier League and has played well for Everton in recent matches.

The England international still needs to improve his game, but there is no doubt that the 23-year-old is a very gifted footballer who has a lot of potential.

The midfielder’s future, though, seems to be wrapped up in uncertainty. Everton manager Ronald Koeman recently told The Sun that if Barkley does not sign a new contract soon, then he will sold in the summer transfer window.

According to The Sun, North London clubs Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Barkley in the summer.

Former Liverpool and Tottenham midfielder Danny Murphy has given his take on Barkley’s situation.

“Barkley may leave Everton in the summer but he needs to be careful,” Murphy wrote in The London Evening Standard. “He could find himself watching a lot from the bench if he moved to a club like, say, Tottenham.”

Barkley needs to consider his future carefully, and if he does indeed Everton in the summer, then he must choose his next club cautiously.

As good as the English attacking midfielder is, it is going to be hard for him to break into the starting lineups of any of the top six teams in the Premier League.
