Wrexham line up move for Tottenham star as Phil Parkinson looks to strengthen his squad for the Championship

Wrexham want Ben Davies despite Tottenham exercising their option to extend the defender's contract by 12 months at the weekend.

Davies has been a Spurs player since 2014 and he featured in 28 games under Ange Postecoglou last season, despite not being a member of the manager's first-choice XI.

Davies has played 358 games for Tottenham in total, operating both as a left back and a central defender.

He is a popular member of the dressing room and especially close to captain Son Heung-min.

Davies recently saw his contract extended until June 2026, which means Wrexham would likely need to pay Spurs a modest transfer fee to land him this summer.

Tottenham's willingness to let Davies leave could depend on whether or not they are successful in their attempts to sign Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite.

Spurs are expected to formalise their interest in 22-year-old Branthwaite next week.

Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson looks set for a busy summer following his side's promotion from League One to the Championship.

Davies has never played below the top tier of English football, having been a Premier League player for his entire club career to date.

The 32-year-old made 71 Premier League appearances for Swansea between 2012 and 2014. He has played a further 242 Premier League games for Spurs.
