"Tottenham" in sight - two defenders © EuroFootball.com

During the summer, the club can be reinforced with Dortmund's "Borussia" representative Christoph Metzelder and/or London's "Leyton Orient" defender Brian Saha, reports the local press.

The head coach of the team, Martin Jol, has repeatedly stated that due to the frequent and severe injuries of Ledley King, who will not play this season, he would primarily like to acquire some capable defenders through the transfer window and has already compiled a list of potential candidates.

The main and most desirable candidate to come to London is C. Metzelder, whose contract with "Borussia" expires this summer. However, it will be difficult for Tottenham to acquire him - the German has also attracted the attention of superclubs such as Real Madrid, AC Milan, and Juventus.

This is why the name of B. Saha is also mentioned. The young 19-year-old defender, competing in the third tier of English football, stands out this season with his reliable play and has already caught the eye of several Premier League clubs.

M. Jol's scouts have already watched several of the 185cm tall defender's matches and were impressed. According to unofficial data, in order to acquire B. Saha, Tottenham's management will have to pay at least 2 million pounds.
