The Daily Mail have revealed that Tottenham Hotspur and Burnley are both eyeing a move for FC Nordsjaelland attacker Ernest Nuamah.

Nuamah has created waves in the Danish top flight since joining Nordsjaelland back in January of last year, with the wide-forward netting 15 goals and registering four assists across all competitions last season (Transfermarkt).

The 19-year-old has started the new campaign with a bang, with four goals and an assist in the first four league games, and his performances have seemingly caught the eye of clubs in the Premier League as well as around Europe.

Tottenham and Burnley both like Ernest Nuamah

The Mail claim that Spurs are among Nuamah’s admirers and have made an enquiry about the player but it is Burnley who are the ‘most advanced’ with their interest.

The report adds that Everton are also fans of the Ghana international but his price tag of £22m is expected to prove prohibitive for the Toffees.

The outlet asserts that the likes of AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain also have their eye on the Nordsjaelland starlet.

Spurs Web Opinion

The one thing Postecoglou might have realised following the Man United and Brentford games is that he needs one more wide player who is aggressive in one vs one situations.

While Son is a world-class finisher, he is no longer the sort of ball carrier he was in his earlier in his career. Ange does have an option on the bench in Solomon, but he might want another top-notch dribbler in the squad, particularly with Gil injured.

Burnley And Blackburn Rovers Join Championship Transfer Tussle For 20-Year-Old

The 20-year-old has sparked a transfer tussle between the English clubs as the German side consider allowing the player to depart on loan to continue his development. He has had to settle for Hertha Berlin’s second team this season but has already scored three goals and chipped in with an assist in only two games. He made 10 appearances for the senior side in the Bundesliga scoring his first goal against Borussia Monchengladbach in February.

Blackburn Rovers are looking to bolster their attacking options after losing key players; Bradley Dack and Ben Brereton Diaz this summer. Scherhant could provide an additional option for Jon Dahl Tomasson. QPR are looking to improve following a dismal campaign and take some pressure off Sinclair Armstrong who has been a shining light for Gareth Ainsworth. Burnley are looking to maintain their Premier League status, adding 11 new players and spending in excess of £80 million with more rumoured signings expected to link up with Vincent Kompany’s side. Preston North End are so far unbeaten in the league after two victories and one defeat.

Whether Hertha Berlin will allow the player to leave on loan this season remains to be seen however, if he is not going to have suitable game time with the German side, it may be beneficial for his development to allow him to make the temporary switch and expose him to a high intensity league such as The Championship.

Writer’s View

It is clear that the player has talent, however the fact he broke into the first team but didn’t maintain his spot could be a concern as to whether he is ready or not. The Championship is still a highly competitive and strong league that can quickly swallow up a young player who isn’t ready. He is young enough however to take that risk but he has to kick on with his development now if he wants to make it as a top flight player, or he could found himself spat out at 23 with little to no game time on his CV.
