Tottenham Hotspur reportedly scouted Jarrod Bowen during Hull City’s draw with Aston Villa on Saturday.

According to The Sun, Hull City want £20 million as transfer fee for Jarrod Bowen, but Tottenham Hotspur are willing to pay £15m.

It has been reported that Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino wants to sign Bowen in the January transfer window.

Spurs reportedly watched the 22-year-old, who can operate as a forward or as a winger, in action during Hull’s 2-2 draw with Aston Villa away from home at Villa Park in the Championship on Saturday.

Good long-term signing for Tottenham Hotspur

Bowen is a very good and promising young attacker who has been playing well for Hull in the Championship this season.

According to WhoScored, the 22-year-old has made 27 starts and one substitute appearance in the Championship for the Tigers, scoring 14 goals and providing three assists in the process.

While £20m for a 22-year-old in the second tier of English football does sound excessive, Bowen is a future star and could be great value for money in the coming years.

Moreover, Tottenham need a forward now as Harry Kane is injured at the moment and Son Heung-min is away on international duty with South Korea at the Asian Cup.
