Tottenham Hotspur are targeting a move for Borussia Dortmund rising star Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, according to BILD. However, Spurs face several challenges in their quest to sign the talented young attacker.
Firstly, Dortmund have set an asking price of a staggering €100 million for the former Manchester City winger. They can insist on the sum because they have leverage in negotiations.
BVB sporting director Sebastian Kehl extended Bynoe-Gittens’ contract until 2028 last year, sending a message to potential suitors, including Tottenham, that the player is not for sale.
Liverpool are also in the mix, with reports suggesting they are ready to present a strong offer for the 20-year-old. Meanwhile, Chelsea are sniffing around. The Blues have made it a quest to lock down all the top talents they can lay their paws on, and the BVB star is on their radar.
Bynoe-Gittens has been in the form of his life this season, scoring four goals and providing two assists in just five starts, catching the eye of scouts from multiple Premier League clubs.
Dortmund originally signed Bynoe-Gittens from Manchester City’s youth set-up in 2020 for a mere €90,000 in training compensation. His current valuation speaks volumes about his rapid development.
The Bundesliga club has a history of transforming young English talent into superstars, signing Jude Bellingham from Birmingham City for €30 million in 2020. He later made a sensational move to Real Madrid for €103 million.
Similarly, Jadon Sancho was acquired for €7.8 million in 2018 and transferred to Manchester United for €85 million in 2021.
As Bynoe-Gittens continues to impress, Spurs and Liverpool are expected to step up their efforts to secure his signature, potentially paving the way for another English talent to return to the Premier League.
The coming months could prove pivotal in determining Bynoe-Gittens’ future, with BVB keen to hold onto their prized asset.
