In a recent report, journalist Graeme Bailey mentioned that Tottenham Hotspur are among the clubs eager to sign Copenhagen winger Roony Bardghji. It has been revealed that Spurs could face competition in the form of Chelsea and Manchester United in the race to sign the Swedish wide player.
Bardghji’s Impressive Rise At Copenhagen
Bardghji is enjoying a great campaign at Copenhagen as he has produced a series of productive displays for them in the final third. The 18-year-old has found the back of the net seven times in 17 matches for his current club in the Danish Superliga.
The talented teenager has caught the eye with his performances in Europe based on his average of 1.3 shots and 1.7 dribbles per game in the UEFA Champions League. He has even taken care of the ball when distributing it in the opponent’s half after making 87.5% of his attempted passes in European football (stats via whoscored).
Bardghji is under contract at the Danish club until the end of 2025. Hence, it makes sense for Spurs to try and arrange a move for him on the cheap this January or at the end of this campaign.
Tottenham Hotspur Are Eager To Land Bardghji: Is He A Prospect For The Future?
Bardghji has shown a knack for scoring some important goals for his team. He is a good dribbler with the ball and can create space to get a few strikes in at goal. The Swedish talent can shoot the ball with power and accuracy from long range. He is primarily a right-sided wide player but can also fill in as an attacking midfielder if asked to do so by his manager.
We can expect Bardghji to bring more quality to Tottenham boss Angelos Postecoglu’s attack in the long run. The Copenhagen whizkid is already good enough to challenge for a regular starting spot at the North London club in the coming seasons.
At 18, Bardghji is undeniably a prospect to watch out for in the future. Hence, Spurs should consider stepping up their pursuit to sign the Swedish teenager when the transfer reopens this January or next summer. However, it remains to be seen whether he can make a smooth transition to life in English football.
