The talented player was inching towards a move to Tottenham Hotspur last summer, with Fabrizio Romano revealing that Eric Dier was part of the negotiations. Lloyd Kelly’s scarcity as a left-footed centre-back at the highest level has made him a top target for many clubs, including Spurs. His technical ability and versatility make him a coveted asset as well. However, Dier’s refusal to join Bournemouth as part of the deal led to the collapse of the transfer. Now, with Kelly set to leave Bournemouth on a free transfer, Tottenham faces stiff competition from clubs in England and abroad. While clubs outside England have the advantage of reaching a pre-contract agreement, the lure of staying in the Premier League and Spurs’ long-standing admiration for Kelly could tilt the scales in their favor.
