PSV Eindhoven star Ismail Saibari should consider a transfer Tottenham Hotspur This summer, as he has now done as much as possible in the Eredivisie.
Voetbal Primeur covered comments by Khaled Boulahrouz Today about the 25-year-old forward. He believes that now is the time for the Moroccan people to move on to pastures new.
Saibari has been the star man for PSV since breaking into their first team in 2022, having previously come through the U21 set up.
Since then he has scored 41 goals and recorded 29 assists in 140 games for the club and played a key role in back-to-back Eredivisie titles. He has 18 goals and nine assists in 34 games this season.
This led many to urge that he should move on. For example, Aston Villa have been encouraged to make a move for him.
Boulahrouz recommends Tottenham transfer
Now, it appears that Boulahrouz feels it is time for a change. And he is recommending a move to Tottenham despite their current struggles.
"A lot of players would want to make a move, but probably nothing that would make you think I'm going to trade PSV for it," he said on Rondo.
“When I look at Saibari: he has definitely played the Eredivisie. If you look at his statistics and his playing style: it's good enough to make a transfer.
"He's a Moroccan international, he's got the Africa Cup behind him, and he's going to play in the World Cup. Assuming he's a starter and plays two good matches, you've just got to move on. Then you have to move on.
"I'm just curious what kind of club will come. He needs to go to an attacking team where he can come into his own. A good club: they are not in a good position at all, but he could add something extra to Tottenham Hotspur. I would go to a club where he could be important."
Would it make sense for Tottenham?
The question is whether a move to Tottenham would make sense this summer. It's easy to see Ismail Saibari fitting in under Roberto De Zerbi, but he already has plenty of options in the same position.
Xavi Simmons was an expensive addition last summer; James Maddison is still at the club and Dejan Kulusevski will return from injury next season as well.
Even further forward, Mathis Tell, Richarlison and Dominic Solanke are competing for places. A player currently valued at €32m would likely require a departure before a transfer could be considered.
This is even before considering their battle to stay in the Premier League. This is the main focus at the moment before the transfer is implemented. Boulahrouz has made his recommendation either way.
