Man United and Liverpool join Tottenham in race for £52m Bundesliga-winning centre-back

Just days after it emerged that Tottenham Hotspur are plotting a summer move for a Bundesliga star, two of the club’s Premier League rivals have also expressed their interest in the player.

It remains to be seen if Spurs will prioritise shoring up their defence in the summer, with the Lilywhites also needing significant additions in midfield and defence.

However, there is reportedly panic at Tottenham over the prospect of losing one or both of Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven in the summer.
