Tottenham seems interested in a young talented midfielder after he visits the training ground.
Tottenham leads the race to sign “one of the greatest talents of recent years” after the recent training session.
Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou will be looking to repeat the electric start his side made last season. The North London side topped the standings before dropping off the top following the Christmas break ending fifth on the final standings.
Regardless, Tottenham is now looking to strengthen their squad, with Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray joining their ranks this summer. Following that another midfielder signing might be on the way for Spurs. It is believed that Hertha Berlin youngster Boris Lum is on the cards for the side.
It is believed that Lum’s departure this summer has been approved by the Bundesliga team, who also gave him the go-ahead to select his new side.
That said, Tottenham currently leads the race as favorites for the new destination of the 16-year-old. Other teams in the race include the likes of Manchester City and Newcastle United.

Lum visits the Spurs’ training ground
As per reports from the German outlet Bild, Boris Lum is already in talks with Tottenham regarding his move to the outfit this summer.
Additionally, Lum has already visited the Spurs’ training facility to see the team in action as per reports. Apparently, Spurs are trying their best to get Lum on board with them this summer.
Back at Hertha Berlin, the German is held in high regard with coach Pal Dardai putting up praises for the 16-year-old claiming to have never seen such a player at Herta in a long time:
“He is one of the greatest talents of recent years,” Dardai told Bild in January.
“It is a pleasure to watch him play. He is a born footballer.”

Since the deal is now on the cards, Tottenham will surely add Boris Lum to their side this summer. That is if everything goes as planned. With so many young impressive talents coming Spurs’ way, we can say they are preparing a long-term team for the future.
Is Tottenham signing pending?
It is understandable that along with Tottenham, Man City is also interested in the youngster. The team is known for going after young prodigies like Boris Lum.
Regardless, Tottenham are yet to make big moves in this summer transfer window. It has been relatively quiet this summer for the Spurs. Only Archie Gray has entered the side on a permanent deal yet.
Timo Werner also extended his stay in North London by coming in on a full season loan this term from RB Leipzig. This follows his short venture last season. However, we can argue if we can really call this a new signing.

South Korean winger Min-hyuk Yang might also be a target signing for Ange Postecoglou.
