Insider: Tottenham ‘massively interested’ in Toby Savin, bid ‘expected soon as window opens’
Tottenham are “massively interested” in signing Accrington Stanley stopper Toby Savin.
That is according to Spurs insider John Wenham, who regularly breaks news about the club on his Lilywhite Rose social media channels.
Savin, 20, has firmly established himself as Stanley’s number one this season.
He has made 30 appearances for John Coleman’s side in all competitions.
His form has been so impressive that Man City goalkeeper James Trafford, who joined the club on loan in the summer of 2021, returned to his parent club in January due to a lack of game time.
Wenham expects Spurs to make a move for Savin as soon as the summer transfer window opens.
“I’m always happy for Tottenham to be signing up young, English talent from the lower leagues,” Wenham told Football Insider correspondent Ben Wild.
“From what I’m told, Tottenham are massively interested in him and we have had scouts watching him extensively.
“I do expect we will make a move for him as soon as the summer window opens.
“What I think could then happen is he could be loaned back to Accrington for the 2022/23 season.
“He might even be loaned to a team in the league above, I’m not sure.
“But from what I was told, Tottenham are very. very keen on him.”
Savin joined Stanley in 2017, after spells at various youth academies such as Southport, Wigan, Everton and Crewe.
He has made 61 appearances for the club to date.
