Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly interested in signing the Moroccan attacking midfielder Maghnes Akliouche from Monaco this summer.

According to a report via GFFN, the 23-year-old will be allowed to leave the French club for a fee of around €60 million. Tottenham and Nottingham Forest are keen on the 23-year-old, but they are yet to come forward with an offer to sign the player.

Tottenham need more cutting-edge

They could use more creativity and technical ability in the final third, and Akliouche could prove to be a quality long-term acquisition. He is highly rated in France, and he has a bright future ahead of himself. He has the technical attributes to do well in the Premier League, and he could be a long-term investment for Tottenham. He is capable of operating on the flanks as well as centrally. He will help create goal-scoring opportunities for his teammates with his creativity, vision, and technical ability.

Akliouche scored seven goals last season and picked up 12 assists. He has been described as a player with “huge potential”.

Maghnes Akliouche could be tempted

The opportunity to move to the Premier League could be quite exciting for the player. Tottenham have secured Champions League qualification for the next season, and they will be an attractive destination for him. They could provide Akliouche with the platform to showcase his abilities consistently in the Premier League. Regular football in England could bring out the best in the player.

Tottenham need to improve their attacking unit if they want to fight for major trophies next season. They are looking to build a formidable squad for the future, and their interest in the 23-year-old is no surprise. He has the attributes to develop into a top-class player in future.
