The Tottenham Hotspur man has been linked to Hull City.
Hull City first-team coach Stephen Clemence has admitted to The Hull Daily Mail that Tottenham Hotspur’s Ryan Mason is a “good player” but refused to be drawn on the speculation linking the Tigers with the midfielder.
Sky Sports reported on Tuesday that Hull are in talks with the 25-year-old, who has fallen behind Victory Wanyama, Mousa Dembele and Eric Dier at Tottenham.
The England international seems unlikely to feature prominently for Spurs this season but there is only seven days to go in the transfer window.
By this time next week, Mason might well be plying his trade elsewhere, but Clemence – who spent six years at Tottenham as a player – was tight-lipped on the rumours surrounding a move to the KC Stadium.
“I don’t really want to comment on that,” said Clemence to The Hull Daily Mail. “I know he’s a good player but he’s someone else’s player.
“He’s an England international who’s done really well. I’ve watched him closely as a Tottenham boy myself but that’s all I can really say.”
Mason has not been included in the Lilywhites’ squad for either of their two Premier League games so far.
He is, however, contracted until 2020 and Hull will not expect to get him on the cheap.
