Spurs have supposedly been monitoring him at the tournament alongside multiple other targets.

Outlet Het Nieuwsblad claim that Tottenham have a “concrete interest” in the winger.

The club’s director of football Fabio Paratici is a big fan and sees him as similar to Dejan Kulusevski.

Skov Olsen has impressed at Club Brugge this season, scoring eight goals and registering four assists in all competitions and helping the Belgian side make it to the last-16 of the Champions League.

The Dane joined them at the beginning of this year and won the league title in the last campaign following his January move.

He first burst on to the scene as a teenager impressing in his homeland for Nordsjaelland, before moving to Bologna prior to joining Brugge.

Skov Olsen has been on Tottenham’s watchlist for some time – they were first linked with him back in 2019 when he was still a teenager.

Spurs are keen to strengthen their squad in January as they look to finish in the top four again.
