According to sources at FußballDaten.de, a trio of Premier League clubs have set their sights on Bilal El Khannouss this summer.

Tottenham Hotspur are looking to bolster their midfield and are seeking a player capable of playing vertical passes with a high-tempo. 

The London club have been closely monitoring the Moroccan player's impressive development at VfB Stuttgart for some time. 

Tottenham have seemingly made initial contact with the player's agent and are prepared to offer around €30million plus add-ons.

Newcastle United, eager to return to Champions League football, are among the clubs seriously interested in El Khannouss.

Newcastle's ability to easily meet his wage demands significantly strengthens the club's position in this transfer battle.

Finally, Crystal Palace continues its strategy of signing young players with potential, developing them, and later selling them to top clubs.

Reports indicate that Crystal Palace wants to beat their bigger rivals by offering the player a guaranteed starting position in their attack.

Stuttgart's have said they would be prepared to give the green light for the Moroccan player's departure should a fsir offer be received.

The Baden-Württemberg club's management is demanding a transfer fee of approximately €40 to €50million for the young star player.
