EPL News: Tottenham looking to sign Gourcuff
Tottenham are looking to break the bank as the team is currently looking to give their midfield a major re-vamp with the introduction of French midfielder Yoann Gourcuff. The player only recently made the move to Lyon, but ever since his arrival at the French
club, he has appeared to be struggling. The player is currently looking to get back to his best and has also expressed his desire to leave Lyon if he needs to do so.
Tottenham on the other hand are currently without a number of their midfielders and could desperately add some reinforcements to the centre of their midfield. The team has in the past managed a shock transfer which saw Rafael Van Der Vaart depart Real Madrid
to join the North London team and they would be looking to repeat the same success with Gourcuff.
However this time around things might not be so easy for the team, as if the midfield magician is made available then Tottenham will face some tough competition for the players signature from some of the top teams in Europe, including their arch rivals Arsenal.
Arsenal have in the past shown their interest in wanting to sign the midfielder and if he is to be made available then the team will be looking to go in and make the purchase as well.
However what needs to be taken into account is the fact that the player was just signed by Lyon and the team might not be willing to part ways with the player. However Considering the fact that Lyon are currently having one of the worst starts to their domestic
season in recent history, the team might consider a substantial bid for the player just in hopes to even things out financially at the team.
Nonetheless it is now a wait till the January transfer window to see what really happens with Gourrcuff and Lyon.
