After today victory: Tottenham make decision on January pursuit of 26yr old EPL defender

Ange Postecoglou has other targets in mind for Tottenham before the January transfer market opens, so they may decide to drop their interest in Tosin Adarabioyo.

According to Football Insider, Ange Postecoglou is prepared to refocus on other options, and Tottenham is no longer mulling a deal for Tosin Adarabioyo. January will mark the start of the 26-year-old defender’s last six months with Fulham, which may have given teams an opportunity to get him for a low price.

What is Tosin Adarabioyo’s current Fulham situation?

Tosin Adarabioyo was a defender, and Fulham had wanted to see him play there throughout his prime years by working out a new contract. The Premier League team activated a one-year extension in his contract in January of last year, but they haven’t made any progress.

Next summer, Adarabioyo will be a free agent and may be able to choose from a number of options. It is said that Fulham is still attempting to persuade him. However, with interest growing, the Cottagers have very little chance of success.

Tottenham intended to sign Adarabioyo in January as they believed they could have had him for less money. Spurs are limited on choices at the back after Micky van de Ven’s injury, therefore they urgently need a new defender. They will need strong depth to step in or rotate as needed, even once the Dutchman returns in January.

Spurs are reportedly losing interest in the 26-year-old Premier League defender as Ange Postecoglou looks at other options to replace him, according to the article. Jean-Clair Todibo may be one of them; Spurs are in preliminary negotiations with OGC Nice in anticipation of a possible January transfer.

The Frenchman would be too expensive for them to tolerate. Postecoglou, however, could have been drawn to his play style and how well he suits Tottenham’s new formation. In a similar vein, Adarabioyo has a ton of English football experience, particularly in the Premier League, so he may also fit in.

However, there are issues over his future since other teams, like as AS Monaco, are also interested in the 26-year-old. Spurs may believe Adarabioyo has agreed to a transfer abroad as he is allowed to sign a pre-contract deal with teams outside of England.
