GiveMeSport reported that Tottenham has decided to join Elhanus at the last moment and will confirm in the near future whether it has successfully convinced the Leicester City star to choose to join Tottenham rather than Crystal Palace.
Tottenham coach Frank suffered a major blow last week, with his arch-rival Arsenal signing Eberec Eze for £67.5 million, forcing the team to formulate plans to introduce alternative targets before the rapidly approaching September 1 deadline.
But Tottenham had to face another rejection, Nico Pas decided to stay after Cuomo rejected a huge offer, so the influential figures behind the club continued to search in the market in search of enhancing the creativity of the frontcourt.
According to GMS sources, Elhanus is considering changing his mind at the last minute and completing the transfer to Tottenham, and he initially expressed his interest in joining Crystal Palace. He is ready to make a final decision on his future in the coming days and will weigh his options early this week.
The midfielder, described by scout Jacques Coolige as a "Magic" who is eager to return to the Premier League quickly, was relegated with Leicester City last season. He did not participate in the Blue Foxes' victory over Charlton last week due to ongoing transfer rumors.
GMS sources learned that Elhanus, who participated in five goals in the Premier League in 2024-25, has noticed Tottenham's sudden pursuit and was added to the list of potential signings after Eze's refusal forced the team to find alternative targets.
Despite signs that Crystal Palace was close to signing the Moroccan international for £32 million last week, the final deal was not completed.
GMS sources learned that Elhanus was open to joining Crystal Palace when Crystal Palace made the best offer on the desktop, but Tottenham's appreciation made him reconsider his choice and there was a high possibility that he would choose to join Spurs.
GMS sources were told that Elhanus was determined to challenge himself by joining a team that competed at the highest level, which made Tottenham increasingly confident in overcoming the competition at Crystal Palace as they were able to provide him with the opportunity to compete in the Champions League.
The 21-year-old has a weekly salary of £35,000, and if Tottenham chooses to enter the negotiations, he will be a cheaper option than Eze. He is eager to prove his worth in the Premier League.
GMS sources understand that Tottenham is racing against time because Elhanus hopes his situation will be resolved before the September 1 deadline, and he has previously refused transfers from teams such as West Ham because the Hammers cannot match his ambitions.
Tottenham not only seeks new attackers in the market, Frank also wants to introduce new defenders, because when he succeeds Postkoglu as Tottenham head coach, management members have assured him that he will strengthen the position.
