“Considering signing Luton Town defender on a free transfer,” according to Tottenham Hotspur
According to reports, Gabriel Osho, a defender for Luton Town who will become a free agent at the end of the current campaign, is very interested in joining Tottenham Hotspur.
Spurs are allegedly interested in Gabriel Osho, a defender for Luton Town.
Like most of his teammates at Kenilworth Road, the 25-year-old has been adjusting to his debut Premier League season.
Osho has been a standout member of the Hatters’ defense, starting 17 games in the top division and scoring twice, most notably on February 3 in a 4–4 draw with Newcastle United.
The center back was recently called up for Nigeria’s March internationals after garnering praise from around the world for his homegrown exploits.
Osho was unable to make his Super Eagles debut against Ghana or Mali in friendly matches, though, due to a knee injury.
Osho of Luton is of interest to Spurs?
Before the 2024–25 season, Tottenham is reportedly trying to strengthen their defensive ranks for the third consecutive transfer window, according to GiveMeSport.
Osho of Luton, who is nearing a pivotal point in his Hatters career, is reportedly the target of Spurs’ possible off-season raid.
The defender can depart on a free transfer in the summer as his current contract at Kenilworth Road expires at the end of the current campaign.
Osho has made 81 appearances for the Hatters in all competitions since joining Luton in 2020, and he has helped the team qualify for the Premier League for the first time ever.
To maintain their first-tier standing, Rob Edwards’ team will need to put in a lot of effort; Luton is currently in 18th place, one point below Nottingham Forest in 17th.
Spurs need defensive reinforcements
Since Ange Postecoglou took over as head coach from Celtic last summer, Tottenham has focused on adding significant reinforcements to its backline.
Spurs have spent almost £70 million in the last two transfer windows to bring Radu Dragusin and Micky van de Ven to North London, but the Lilywhites still have few choices.
Owing to injuries sustained during the season, Ben Davies, a left-back, has frequently been used in Postecoglou’s defense alongside players like Cristian Romero.
Spurs are currently having trouble keeping their full-backs healthy; Pedro Porro and Destiny Udogie are both sidelined with hamstring and muscular problems, respectively.
