Nottingham Forest-linked Ruslan Malinovskyi is said to be edging closer to a January move to Tottenham Hotspur.
The Reds were credited with an interest in the Atalanta attacking midfielder in the summer, ahead of their return to the Premier League. Those links then resurfaced as attention turned to the winter transfer window, with the City Ground being tipped as the player’s destination of choice.
West Ham United and Marseille were also mooted as potential suitors, but reports in Italy suggest it is now Spurs who are leading the way to secure his signature. Calciomercato say the player is “increasingly close to Tottenham”, and his club could be willing to drop their asking price.
