Tottenham launch negotiations to snatch a deal for a player considered better than Gallagher.

Tottenham Hotspur have endured an inconsistent campaign under Thomas Frank, but a convincing victory in Frankfurt has booked their place in the Champions League round of 16. By finishing fourth in their group, Spurs avoided an extra playoff round—a significant boost amid their ongoing injury crisis
.
However, their Premier League form remains disappointing. Supporters made their frustrations clear last weekend as the team left the pitch after scraping a draw against struggling Burnley.

Reports from Spain suggest Tottenham have made contact with Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka as they look to strengthen their midfield options. The 30-year-old has fallen down the pecking order under Vincent Kompany and is said to have held direct talks over a potential move.
Spurs are also believed to be attempting to derail Atletico Madrid’s bid for the German international, whose contract with Bayern expires this summer.

Goretzka could provide the experience Tottenham desperately lack. With an average squad age of just 25.4, Spurs boast one of the youngest teams in the Premier League, with limited senior figures to lead the group.
