Tottenham Hotspur should seriously consider signing the Leicester City winger this summer.
Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino is reportedly keen on bolstering his wide attacking options this summer, in an effort to add more competition for the likes of Christian Eriksen, Lucas Moura and Heung-Min Son.
One player in particular who is attracting attention from Spurs is Bordeaux winger Malcom, according to the Sun, with a £40 million switch to the Premier League being mooted for the Brazilian.
The 21-year-old is an incredibly talented player, that cannot be denied, but he is a totally unproven commodity in the Premier League, and spending £40 million on the winger could be deemed as a risky move.
With this in mind, Tottenham should consider a move for Leicester ace Demarai Gray instead.
Every Love Island contestant if they were an England player – World Cup!
The north London outfit have already been linked with a move for the Foxes winger, with ESPN reporting that Spurs are keen on signing the 22-year-old this summer.
Gray joined Leicester from Birmingham in January 2016, for a fee believed to be worth in the region of £3.5 million, and he has gone on to rack up 99 appearances in all competitions, chalking up six goals and 11 assists in the process.
Whilst that return could undoubtedly have been better, the 22-year-old is still learning his trade at the top level, and the experience that he has garnered over the past two-and-a-half years with Leicester will stand him in great stead.
The Mirror reported last year that the Foxes value Gray at £30 million, and for that kind of money, he would surely be the better option than Malcom for Tottenham.
£10 million cheaper than the Brazilian, with just as much talent…a move for the Leicester man seems to be a no-brainer or Spurs this summer.
