The summer transfer market is approaching, and Tottenham Hotspur is already working on planning its squad for next season. According to exclusive information from Fichajes.net, the club led by Ange Postecoglou has Mikel Merino on its list of objectives.
Tottenham’s interest in Mikel Merino is based on the need to strengthen their midfield, especially given the possible departures in the future of players such as Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Giovani Lo Celso. The Spanish midfielder has stood out both for his physique and for his experience in the Premier League, becoming an essential piece in the current Real Sociedad under the direction of Imanol Alguacil.
Merino’s profile fits perfectly into the idea of the game that Postecoglou wants to implement at Tottenham. His ability to recover balls, his vision of the game, and the quality of his distribution make him a versatile and complete midfielder.
Currently, Mikel Merino’s price is estimated at 60 million euros, which corresponds to his termination clause with Real Sociedad. At 27 years old, Merino is at the peak of his career and his contract with the Spanish club ends in the summer of 2025. The Basque club is working on renewing him.
Tottenham sees a golden opportunity in the Spanish midfielder to strengthen their squad and give the team a boost in the Premier League. Competition for his signature could be intense, as other clubs have also shown interest in his services.
Spurs fans will be attentive to developments in the coming weeks, as the club works on his possible incorporation. If Mikel Merino joins Tottenham it could be an important step in their quest for success next season and beyond.
