Charlie Adam says Leeds main star is joining Tottenham

Tottenham could soon be in the market for Leeds United goalkeeper Illan Meslier, according to insider Charlie Adam.

The former Premier League midfielder said Meslier could be a good option for Spurs if they want a long-term replacement for Hugo Lloris.

“Tottenham will be looking for players to finish their contract,” Adam said. “The situation of the goalkeepers, during the last two years, is something that could have been improved.

“I think Lloris has also scored some goals. I don’t think he is one of the bravest goalkeepers, in terms of coming to the centers. But he has had a wonderful career.

“It will be interesting what level they go to, in terms of who they want to buy. I would go for someone younger, who can progress and be there for a long time, then nurture himself to be at Spurs for a long time and be at the club for six, seven, eight years.

“Just like Arsenal went to Ramsdale, they took a risk, but it paid off because he is a top goalkeeper. Maybe go buy a Jordan Pickford or something? Possibly (Illan Meslier). He is a young boy, who has had a couple of years of experience and has made mistakes in the Premier League. But Bielsa supported him. Jesse Marsch backed him up, so someone like Meslier could be the one for Tottenham in the future.”
