Tosin Adarabioyo prefers to join AS Monaco over Tottenham Hotspur
In a surprising turn of events, the transfer saga surrounding Tosin Adarabioyo has taken a new twist, and it appears Tottenham Hotspur’s hopes of securing the talented centre-back are dwindling.
FootMercato have now claimed that an agreement between Adarabioyo and AS Monaco is now within touching distance. This revelation comes despite the fact that Tottenham had tabled an offer for the defender.
Adarabioyo’s reported preference for a move to the French Ligue 1 club over Spurs has left many fans wondering about the reasons behind this decision. Fulham, the current owners of the centre-back, are yet to receive an official bid from Monaco for the player.
The situation with Tottenham’s defence has been precarious, and their failure to bolster the backline has been a cause of concern among supporters. During the club’s pre-season friendlies, the absence of a new centre-back saw Ben Davies reluctantly filling in at the back.
Manager Ange Postecoglou has not shied away from acknowledging the urgency of the situation, assuring the fans that the club are actively pursuing a new centre-back to solve the issues.
Alasdair Gold, a reputable source for Tottenham news, recently indicated through Football. London that the expectation of a potential bid for Tosin Adarabioyo from Tottenham was gaining momentum.
At 25 years old, Adarabioyo finds himself with just one year remaining on his current contract in London. The limited time left on his deal could explain his desire to seek pastures new and start afresh.
While it is disappointing news for Tottenham supporters, it’s essential to consider the wider context of the transfer market and the club’s overall plans. There are other options in the transfer market that could help us in this regard.
