Tottenham Hotspur were said to be interested in signing Leicester City defender Ben Chilwell ahead of the January transfer window.
Ben Chilwell’s emergence as an England international is bad news for Tottenham Hotspur’s hopes of signing him in the January transfer window.
Spurs failed to make a single signing during the summer, but are said to be plotting moves that they could make in January.
Since being linked to Spurs, Chilwell has gone from strength to strength and his form has not gone unnoticed.
The left-back made his first England start against Croatia, and his performance during the contest impressed.
Chilwell never looked out of place, and his value just seems to be rising of late.
Tottenham now face paying mega-money if they are to have any chance of buying Chilwell, and it may just be that Mauricio Pochettino’s side’s hopes of signing the Leicester man are over before they ever really begun.
