Transfer news: Tottenham track two Championship teenage starlets | OneFootball

Tottenham are tracking Rico Richards and Nathan Ferguson of West Bromwich Albion

Tottenham are amongst four Premier League giants keeping an eye on Rico Richards, according to the Sun.

The 16-year-old has already spent time with West Bromwich Albion’s U23 team and has been watched by Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City (h/t Sun).

The forward can play across the front-line and is out of a contract at the end of the season. West Brom want to keep hold of their rising star, who scored on his England U17 debut earlier this year (h/t Sun).

Spurs also interested in Ferguson

Nathan Ferguson has featured in 13 Championship games for West Brom this season. The 19-year-old has scored a goal and provided an assist this season already, and is also being tracked by Tottenham (h/t Sun).

The report claims that Ferguson could cost Tottenham more than £10million, and could grow into the right-back position too.

Ferguson has featured primarily as the left-back for the Baggies but he can do the job on the right side of the defence too.

Tottenham have found it tough to have a consistent right-back in recent years. Kyle Walker’s departure opened the door for Kieran Trippier, however, he was sold to Atletico Madrid in the summer.

Kyle Walker-Peters has had his injury problems over the years while Serge Aurier hasn’t been able to cement a starting place since his move from PSG.

The Ivorian has also struggled with injuries since moving from France, and it will be interesting to see if we sign either of the Baggies youngsters.
