Spurs Track Former Real Madrid Prospect Amid Midfield Uncertainty

While Italian reports suggest a rejected bid, Sky Sports state that such claims “are thought to be premature.” Spurs’ interest, however, is real.

Midfield Gaps Highlight Urgency

With Maddison sidelined due to a ruptured ACL, Spurs face a creative void. Paz, though still developing, offers technical ability and vision in advanced areas.

Tottenham’s next move may depend on fitness updates and the urgency to reinforce attacking midfield.

Losing Maddison to a serious injury was a hammer blow, not just tactically, but emotionally. He’s been the creative heartbeat of the team, and now they’re scrambling for a solution.

Nico Paz is talented, yes, but this feels like a gamble. He’s played in the Real Madrid system, which is a glowing endorsement, but stepping into Maddison’s shoes in the Premier League is another matter entirely. Purs fans have seen flair players arrive with big reputations and leave quietly.

If reports of an initial bid being turned down are even slightly accurate, are Spurs ready to negotiate seriously? Or will this turn into another ‘tracked but not signed’ saga?

The club must act decisively. Whether it’s Paz or someone else, a Maddison replacement must arrive. Otherwise, a season that once promised creativity and cohesion could fade into another campaign of missed opportunities.
