Southampton Want to Sign Tottenham Star Oliver Skipp

Oliver Skipp is expected to leave Tottenham before the end of the transfer window after attracting interest from Southampton, Ipswich Town and Leicester City, according to Matt Law.

The central midfielder signed a new deal in north London two years ago that tied him down until 2027, but he has failed to impress manager Ange Postecoglou and has now been made surplus to requirements ahead of the new season.

All three promoted Premier League clubs are interested in signing the former Norwich loanee to bolster their midfield options, with his top-flight experience considered as something that would help their charge for survival.

Oliver Skipp Allowed to Leave Spurs

Skipp, who has been described as “outstanding” by Ange Postecoglou, is now expected to leave north London before the transfer window closes as he goes in search of more regular first-team football.

Having joined the club when he was eight years old, Skipp became a fan favourite after breaking into the team but has fallen way down the pecking order in recent seasons after the arrivals of Yves Bissouma, Rodrigo Bentancur, Pape Sarr and now Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall.
