Tottenham eye transfer move for Freiburg’s Noah Atubolu | OneFootball

Tottenham Hotspur have watched Freiburg’s Noah Atubolu as they search for goalkeeping reinforcements this summer, according to the Daily Mail.

Tottenham need a new goalkeeper, with Guglielmo Vicario poised to leave the North London outfit this summer for a return to his native Italy.

Second-choice goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky is also poised to leave the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on loan in search of game time, leaving the club needing reinforcement.

Spurs’ radar has picked up the 6ft4ins Germany Under-21 international, who is enjoying another outstanding individual campaign in the Bundesliga.

Atubolu has been one of the most reliable goalkeepers in the German top flight, impressing with his agility and penalty-stopping heroics.

The 23-year-old has saved 5/8 penalties he has faced in the Bundesliga since breaking onto the scene and has notched up 33 clean sheets in 111 appearances.

Atubolu is not only an upgrade with his hands but also with his feet. He is a respectable ball distributor who has earned comparisons to the great Manuel Neuer.

Freiburg have come to terms with losing their star goalkeeper. Atubolu’s current deal expires in 2027, and they won’t want to let him go for free.

With a year left on his deal, it is the perfect opportunity for Tottenham to pounce and secure a promising goalkeeper. But he is not the only target they are assessing.

Besides Atubolu, Tottenham are also reportedly keeping tabs on Dean Henderson (Crystal Palace) and James Trafford (Manchester City).

However, Spurs are well aware that those two would cost significantly more than Atubolu. It remains to be seen which target the North Londoners will eventually push for.

Tottenham cannot afford to get it wrong with whoever they decide on.

They need a goalkeeper who brings stability to the backline, which in turn translates to the rest of the team.
