Hull City not the only Premier League team interested in Aaron Lennon

Posted Monday, February 02, 2015 by ESPN

Aaron Lennon's services are in demand from several Premier League clubs, according to ESPN FC sources.

Hull City are not the only club who have expressed an interest in Tottenham winger Aaron Lennon, sources have told ESPN FC.

Hull seemed to be in pole position to sign Lennon after their manager Steve Bruce claimed on Saturday that his club was close to agreeing a deal to sign 27-year-old Lennon, but sources have told ESPN that "several clubs have expressed an interest" in signing the England international, including Queens Park Rangers.

QPR boss Harry Redknapp is a big admirer of Lennon, having worked with the England international during his time in charge at Tottenham.

Everton are also reported to be considering an offer from Spurs that would see their Spanish international Kevin Mirallas move to White Hart Lane with Lennon making the switch to Goodison Park.

What seems increasingly clear is that Lennon's days at Tottenham are coming to an end, with Spurs head coach Mauricio Pochettino not finding a place for a player who was central to the club's plans not so long ago in his set-up.

Sources have told ESPN that Lennon was made aware of the decision to allow him to leave in this transfer window some time ago and he is ready to make a move if the right deal can be finalised on deadline day.

Spurs would prefer to agree on a cash transfer for Lennon, but would consider a loan deal so long as it included a provision for a permanent move at the end of this season.
