“Could be a shrewd addition” – Tottenham monitoring Coventry City player ahead of summer transfer window: The verdict

Coventry City could face a battle to keep hold of Callum O’Hare, with the attacking midfielder attracting plenty of attention.

It’s been claimed that Norwich City are admirers of the 23-year-old, whilst reports from the Telegraph stated that Tottenham have sent scouts to watch O’Hare in action for the Sky Blues on numerous occasions this season.

Moving to Antonio Conte’s side would seem like a big step up for O’Hare, who has managed five goals and seven assists in the Championship this season.

But, is he capable of making his mark at Spurs in the future? Here our writers share their thoughts…

This may not be a bad signing for Spurs in the long run.

O’Hare is a very promising midfielder with an ability to make things happen in front of goal both himself and others, and he has played a key role in Coventry’s push for a play-off place this season.

Admittedly, it would be a big step up for him to go straight from that to competing for trophies and Champions League spots with Tottenham, but with the options Antonio Conte already has, there would be no need to rush him into such a role.

That could mean that there is plenty of time for O’Hare to develop into regular first-team player for Tottenham, and at only 23-years-old, there is still a long way for him to go in his career, during which he could gradually make the step up to that sort of level.

As a result, this could be a useful piece of business for Spurs, especially considering he is a player they should be able to afford given the financial strength they have.
