Tottenham watching Finnish international?
The UEFA Champions League allows scouts the opportunity to watch players play against teams and players they would not normally come up against. That provides new problems and adds an 'occasion' element to their game, it's important to know how they react in such circumstances.
Reports coming out of the Italian press suggest Tottenham and Napoli had scouts at the Barcelona vs Ajax game that the Spanish side won 3-1 thanks to goals from Neymar, Messi and Ramirez
He made 47 touches, 35 passes with an 88.6% success rate, 7 of those passes were long balls and 6 of them found their target. Defensively the centre-back made 2 tackles, 4 interceptions and 6 clearances while committing only 1 foul.
The Finnish captain Niklas Moisander was the subject of our attention they claim, at 29-years-old that would involve a change of transfer policy were we to sign him and that in unlikely. He has never played in a major league, never played in the Premier League and is not going to increase in value, even if he did improve under Pochettino.
The story about a potential bidding war sounds like complete nonsense, clubs don't enter bidding wars, they have a figure they will pay and don't go above it unless they are a special player, Moisander is not a special player, nor is he so special to Tottenham that we must enter a supposed bidding war to sign him.
Even if he is available for free at the end of the season when his contract runs out it seems we would probably have been watching someone else.
