Tottenham fans will have been keeping a watchful eye on United States midfielder Weston McKennie in their World Cup clash vs England on Friday evening. Starting regularly for Juventus this season, talk of a switch to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium just doesn't seem to go away at all.
A player who Fabio Paratici is a big fan of after initially bringing him to Juventus from German side Schalke in 2020, the 24-year-old has been linked with a move to the Lilywhites ever since the Tottenham managing director of football departed Turin. Impressing in midfield for the US in the 0-0 draw with the Three Lions, Brad Friedel has called on his former club to move for McKennie if they can afford to do so.
"If the finances work then Tottenham should definitely be in for McKennie. He’s the best central midfielder the US has ever had," the former shot-stopper told Online Casino. "Against England he showed his quality and I think he’d be a brilliant addition for any big side in Europe."
