Tottenham Hotspur interested in Southampton defender Jannik Vestergaard

Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Jannik Vestergaard from Premier League rivals Southampton in the summer transfer window, according to The Mirror. It has been reported that Spurs head coach Jose Mourinho wants to sign a new central defender for next season and beyond and has identified Vestergaard as a potential target.

Vestergaard has been on the books of Southampton since 2018 and has established himself as an important player in the team. According to WhoScored, the Denmark international has made 19 starts and one substitute appearance in the Premier League for the Saints so far this season, scoring three goals in the process.

Southampton are an established club in the Premier League, but Spurs regularly challenge for the top four and also play in European competitions. Vestergaard could find a potential move to Spurs very appealing.
