Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keen on signing Leeds United utility man

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keen on signing Leeds United utility man Archie Gray in the summer transfer window.
According to a report from Football Insider, Tottenham Hotspur will compete with Liverpool to sign England Under-21 international Archie Gray. The 2006-born utility man has established himself as a useful player for Leeds United in the Championship, and it is no surprise that the top Premier League clubs, including Liverpool, are keeping tabs on him.

Tottenham have shown willingness when it comes to investing in young players, and they have recently brought in a number of exciting talents. It appears that they are keen on the Leeds United utility man as well.

He could prove to be a quality long-term addition to their midfield. The opportunity to move to the Premier League will be attractive for the young midfielder, and he will be tempted to showcase his abilities at a high level.

Spurs have an exciting project and a charismatic manager in charge. Ange Postecoglou has done well to nurture young players during his time at Celtic, and he could help the Leeds United midfielder fulfil his potential as well. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham can secure an agreement with Leeds for the talented young midfielder in the summer.

Tottenham will face competition from Premier League rivals Liverpool, who are keen on the England Under-21 international as well. Liverpool have a proven track record when it comes to nurturing young players, and they could help him fulfil his potential as well.

Archie Gray could fancy Liverpool move
Liverpool have a proven track record of pushing for major trophies in recent seasons, and they could be a more attractive destination for the youngster. It remains to be seen how the situation develops. Gray needs to decide on his future carefully. He will need to join a club where he will get ample opportunities and a clear pathway to the first team.

He cannot afford to sit on the bench at a big club at this stage of his career. If Tottenham or Liverpool cannot provide him with game time assurances, the 2006-born utility man should look to continue at Leeds United and develop with regular game time, especially if they return to the Premier League.
