Castello Lukeba

Tottenham Hotspur are monitoring RB Leipzig defender Castello Lukeba as part of a wider defensive rebuild, with Manchester United and Chelsea also tracking the French centre-back. The pursuit tests Spurs’ long-term planning after already moving decisively for two central defenders this summer.

RB Leipzig host Union Berlin on Friday at Red Bull Arena, aiming to extend their winning streak and solidify Champions League hopes. Union seek to upset the third-placed side amid their mid-table campaign.
