Report suggests Tottenham and Newcastle are keen on highly rated Bundesliga attacker – originally posted on Sportslens.com
Tottenham Hotspur are thought to be keen on signing the Schalke youngster Matthew Hoppe.
The 20 year old American forward is rated highly at the German club and 90 min are reporting that four Premier League clubs are keen on the player.
Apparently, the likes of Spurs, Southampton, Newcastle United and Wolverhampton Wanderers are all expected to submit offers for the player.
The German club are under financial pressure because of the pandemic and the club hierarchy are looking to cash in on some of their players to ease the situation.
Schalke are now looking to recoup a significant fee for the youngster who has two years left on his current deal.
Hoppe has established himself as a first-team player for Schalke already and he managed to score six goals in 22 Bundesliga appearances for them last year.
The American youngster has a big future ahead of him and he could be a quality long-term investment for all four Premier League clubs.
However, he needs to play regularly in order to fulfill his potential and a move to Tottenham right now might not be ideal for him.
The likes of Newcastle might be a more suitable move for the youngster. The Magpies are lacking in depth in attack and the 20-year-old is likely to get more playing time at St. James’ Park.
