We now know how Tottenham Hotspur identified their newest signing Antonin Kinsky as a target and why the Spurs hierarchy decided to sign him so swiftly in January.
Another Tottenham signing made out of the blue
Unlike the previous Tottenham regime headed by Fabio Paratici, where the club’s top targets were almost public knowledge, this current regime prefers to operate in secrecy.
They would have thus been pleased with the fact that almost no outlet or journalist caught a whiff of the Antonin Kinsky deal until a full agreement had been struck with Slavia Prague and the goalkeeper arrived in London for a media on Saturday.
The 21-year-old might be an unknown quantity among Spurs fans but is seen as a generational talent back in Czechia. Not only has he impressed with his shot-stopping but he is also extremely proficient with the ball at his feet.
How Spurs identified Antonin Kinsky
Ryan Taylor has now revealed that it was Spurs‘ technical director Johan Lange who had identified Kinsky through some data algorithms.
The Dane then sent his scouts to watch the youngster in action on several occasions this season, but the journalist explains that Tottenham had initially earmarked him as a target for next summer.
Given that Spurs are paying £12.5m plus add-ons for the youngster, one would expect him to go straight into the starting eleven over Fraser Forster.
It has been widely reported that Postecoglou and his coaching staff see the Englishman’s inability to sweep behind the high defensive line and his decision-making on the ball as big weaknesses.
The Czechia Under-21 international will help remedy that as his ability with his feet and his passing range are among his biggest strengths.
