Tottenham eyeing West Ham & Crystal Palace target "with a good attitude and mentality"
Yesterday at 04:15 AM
Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a surprise move for Sutton United defender Jack Taylor.
The 19-year-old Non-League defender has impressed with his performances and Tottenham are keeping tabs on his situation, as per TBR Football. It will be interesting to see if they decide to make a move for him.
Taylor has impressed with Sutton United, and he was excellent during his loan spell at Hampton & Richmond Borough prior to that.
West Ham and Crystal Palace are keen on the defender as well. Both clubs have looked vulnerable at the back this season and they could use central defensive reinforcements. The 19-year-old could be a long-term investment for them. If they can sign in for a reasonable price this month, the deal could look like a masterstroke in the long term.
Similarly, Tottenham have had plenty of injuries this season and they need more defensive depth. Another central defender would be ideal and the 19-year-old could be a useful player for them. If he manages to adapt to the Premier League, he might be able to force his way into the starting lineup in the near future.
The player recently signed a professional contract with Sutton United recently and Academy manager Jimmy Dack has heaped praise on him. He has described the defender as someone "with a good attitude and mentality". Dack has backed Taylor to do really well for himself in future as well.
He said: "It just shows you that with a good attitude and mentality, you know anything anything can happen. Steve has seen something in him and the club's offered him a two-year contract and I've got no doubts he's going to go on and do really well for himself".
The young defender could be tempted to move to the Premier League and the opportunity to play for Tottenham will be very exciting for him. It would be a huge step up in his career, and he will want to test himself at the highest level. It will be interesting to see where he ends up.
