Tottenham Target £41m Defender as He Considers Club Exit
Tottenham Hotspur is reportedly interested in signing Feyenoord center-back David Hancko, with the player now open to leaving the Dutch club. The 26-year-old Slovak international has been a key player for Feyenoord but is contemplating a new challenge.
According to reports from TEAMtalk and journalist Rudy Galetti, Hancko is receptive to a move away from Feyenoord as Tottenham expresses interest. While a summer transfer seems more likely at this stage, the defender is expected to command a fee of around £41 million in 2025.
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has hinted at the need for more experienced signings to complement the club’s younger talents. The team’s current injury crisis in defense has exposed a lack of depth in the squad, prompting discussions about potential reinforcements.
Hancko has received high praise for his defensive abilities, with former Feyenoord player Tim de Cler describing him as a “top defender all-round” capable of playing for a club just below Europe’s elite. This aligns with Tottenham’s ambitions to strengthen their backline with proven quality.
As Tottenham continues to monitor options for defensive reinforcements, Hancko’s potential availability and skill set make him an intriguing prospect for the North London club’s future plans.
