Tottenham join the race for Bundesliga star after midweek enquiry.

Tottenham Hotspur have stepped up their pursuit of Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka.
Reports from Fichajes suggest Spurs are keen to complete the signing this month and have already opened direct talks with the German international. Atletico Madrid are also monitoring the situation, but the North London club are ready to compete strongly for his signature.
Tottenham have requested comprehensive details about Goretzka as they assess the feasibility of the deal, which they reportedly view as crucial to rescuing their season. However, his salary of around €7 million per year makes the move a costly prospect.
Contact between Spurs and the player intensified on Wednesday, and the coming days could prove decisive. At 30, Goretzka continues to attract interest from elite European clubs, and his blend of strength, defensive solidity, and energy would significantly enhance Tottenham’s midfield.
His experience in Germany suggests he has both the physical presence and technical quality to thrive in the Premier League.
Spurs believe Goretzka could form a strong partnership with recent signing Conor Gallagher.
Beyond his on-field ability, his leadership and winning mentality could bring added value to the dressing room.
Bayern Munich have yet to reach a final decision on Goretzka’s future, particularly regarding a potential January move. With the midfielder still in his prime, a new challenge in England could be an appealing opportunity.
Tottenham will be hoping to secure the transfer and that Goretzka can inject fresh life into their midfield.
