Tottenham Hotspur may have a better chance of poaching Andreas Schjelderup from Benfica in January after the Norwegian winger was linked with a move to the Premier League side all summer.Left-wing is starting to look like one of Spurs’ major weak areas, with Mathys Tel struggling so much that he was left out of Tottenham’s matchday squad against Aston Villa.Wilson Odobert and on-loan Chelsea man Mykhailo Mudryk are now both out with injuries, as is Xavi Simons, who is not expected to return until next year after suffering an ACL injury back in April.Tottenham may thus turn to the market for a left-winger in January, and one player who could be on their radar is Schjelderup, who was allegedly the subject of a €55m (£47.4m) offer from the Lilywhites in the summer.The Norwegian international’s current deal at Benfica will have just 18 months left to run in January, and the latest development over his future comes as good news for Spurs.Photo by Torbjorn Tande/DeFodi Images/DeFodi via Getty ImagesTottenham target Andreas Schjelderup stalls on new contract after changing representationPortugal’s Record have now revealed that the 22-year-old has changed his representation to Gestifute, the company led by super agent Jorge Mendes. The report says that Benfica president Rui Costa is trying to tie Schjelderup down to a new contract to protect his value ahead of the winter transfer window.However, the club presented a five-year offer to the winger back in June, and they are yet to receive an answer from the player.While there are no suggestions that Mendes has been hired to engineer a transfer in January, one would think Benfica have a big decision to make if the Norway international does not extend his deal before January.Schjelderup may be more sellable than he was in the summerSport Witness also points out that while Benfica boss Marco Silva was insistent that he does not want to lose the 22-year-old in the summer, his importance to the squad may have dwindled.While the pacy winger has had a decent start to the season, with two goals and three assists to his name so far, he has been left out of the starting eleven for two big matches recently.Schjelderup only played 10 minutes in the Portuguese club’s 2-0 Europa League win over AC Milan, while he only got 16 minutes in their 3-1 loss away at Porto before the international break.That suggests that Benfica could be more receptive to offers for the former Nordsjaelland star in January than they were in the recent summer window.READ MORE: Tottenham tried to sign Raphinha from Barcelona this summer before 14 goals in eight gamesThe post Tottenham will be very interested in Andreas Schjelderup development after £47m summer interest appeared first on Spurs Web.
