Tottenham have reportedly joined West Ham in the race to sign Celta Vigo midfielder Stanislav Lobotka.
According to Di Marzio, via The Mirror, Spurs are now also interested in signing Lobotka ahead of next season.
Lobotka has been a great asset for Celta Vigo since he signed for the Spanish side in 2017, becoming one of their finest players and being regarded as one of the best midfield prospects in Europe. There is no surprise that he is catching the eyes of some of the world’s heavy-weights.
Lobotka isn’t the only Celta Vigo player that West Ham have been eyeing up, they are also interested in forward Maxi Lopez. It is reported that if the hammers were to lure the two Celta Vigo players to London it would cost around £53.5 million.
Tottenham also being interested in the Slovakian could prove to be a problem for West Ham’s attempts, as they will be able to offer Champions League football. Although, if he wants guaranteed first-team football – West Ham would be the better choice.
