Tottenham Hotspur Are Showing Interest In This Talented Winger: Good Fit For De Zerbi?

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly showing interest in Benfica winger Andreas Schjelderup, with the potential for a move later this year, according to journalist Pete O’Rourke. The report frames Schjelderup as a fit for Tottenham coach Roberto De Zerbi’s attack, citing his ability to dribble, make driving runs along wide areas, and deliver decisive passes in the final third. The 22-year-old scored 10 goals and added seven assists in 43 matches across all competitions for Benfica last season. His contract with Benfica runs until the summer of 2028, which could complicate negotiations for a lower cost in the upcoming off-season. The article also notes uncertainty about whether he can adapt to the physical and high-intensity demands of the Premier League.
