Tottenham linked as Bowen family angle emerges

Tottenham are the latest club linked with Jarrod Bowen, but the new detail is about where his family might prefer to live rather than anything Spurs have done.

Spurs Web relays The Sun's unnamed-source claim that Bowen is keen to keep playing at the highest level, while moving away from the South East could complicate his family's work. The source presents Tottenham as a possible compromise because it would keep them in London.

None of that is Bowen saying he wants to join Spurs. No contact, talks or bid are reported. A theory about family logistics is not a transfer approach.
