Spurs step up efforts to beat Liverpool to signing of Premier League star
Briefly

Tottenham have intensified their pursuit of Brentford captain Nathan Collins, the 24-year-old Republic of Ireland international. Collins is contracted to Brentford until 2029, creating transfer complications as Brentford seek to avoid further departures after a difficult summer that included managerial change and key player exits. Thomas Frank has moved to Tottenham and is keen to reunite with Collins, with contacts expected imminently. Manchester United face financial constraints requiring player sales before serious bids. Liverpool have stronger finances after offloading several players and are assessing defensive reinforcements, though no official approach for Collins has been made.
Collins is under contract with Brentford until 2029, which makes any potential transfer complicated, with the Bees eager not to lose more key players after a difficult summer. Thomas Frank left his role as Brentford manager to take over at Tottenham, while star winger Bryan Mbeumo later left to join Manchester United, while Christian Norgaard moved to Arsenal. Collins is now attracting interest from Tottenham, Liverpool and Man United.
Manchester United are also in the mix, but their financial situation means they'd need to sell players before making a serious bid. Numerous sources have confirmed that this is expected to put them at a disadvantage in the race. Liverpool, on the other hand, are in a stronger position financially. They've raised significant funds by offloading Darwin Nunez, Luis Diaz, and Caoimhin Kelleher, and are now looking to reinforce their backline.
