Liverpool pursue Tottenham midfielder Archie Gray in summer transfer
Liverpool are interested in signing Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Archie Gray this summer as the north London club faces a severe threat of Premier League relegation.
The Anfield side are closely monitoring the 20-year-old following an impressive individual campaign.
A formal approach is highly likely if Spurs drop into the Championship at the end of the season.
The capital club currently sit 18th in the top-flight standings with just six matches remaining to save their status.
Spurs’ relegation fears mount
Tottenham suffered a damaging 1-0 defeat to Sunderland on Sunday during Roberto De Zerbi’s first match in charge.
The Italian manager recently replaced interim boss Igor Tudor but was unable to spark an immediate revival.
Despite the team’s collective struggles, the former Leeds United prospect has remained a standout performer, making 79 appearances since his arrival.
The highly rated youngster has contributed five goal involvements, including a strike during a narrow defeat to Newcastle United in February.
Potential exodus in north London
Bayern Munich are also reportedly tracking the English talent, who has previously been described as a ‘future £100m’ asset.
Losing top-flight status would almost certainly trigger a mass departure of first-team regulars from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Club captain Cristian Romero is expected to leave after being ruled out for the remainder of the season with a knee injury.
Inter Milan have also expressed confidence in securing a deal for Italian goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario.
Loan stars set for departure
Key defensive figures including Micky van de Ven and Lucas Bergvall could evaluate their options if the worst happens.
Furthermore, the club will not pursue permanent deals for loan signings Randal Kolo Muani and Joao Palhinha.
The French forward will return to his parent club, while the Portuguese midfielder will head back to Bayern Munich despite an active purchase option.
