Former Tottenham Hotspur striker Teddy Sheringham has urged the North London club to sign Manchester United defender Harry Maguire before the summer transfer window comes to a close.
Having now been stripped of his captaincy, Maguire's future is uncertain having already not been a permanent feature during manager Erik ten Hag's first season in charge of the Red Devils.
Now a number of clubs have been linked with making a move for Maguire and as Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou looks to mould the team in his image, Sheringham believes Maguire could be a perfect fit for a Tottenham defence which struggled during the 2022/23 campaign.
"Harry Maguire would be an excellent option for Tottenham’s defence," Sheringham told Lord Ping.
"Whenever you watch Maguire play for England, he rarely lets anyone down. He is a solid, proven professional that is well suited for the Premier League.
"He has had a tough time at Manchester United – he took a lot of flak and was always the fall guy. I actually think that those experiences at United will hold him in good stead and could push him onto to have to a brilliant end to his career.
"He will have plenty to prove and I think he would be a great signing for Tottenham. I really think he has been hung out to dry at Manchester United.
"If I think back to any of the centre backs that I played with, I’m not sure they would have been able to cope with the amount that Harry Maguire has had over the last few years."
