Tottenham Hotspur have agreed a deal to sign Kirsty Hanson from Aston Villa Women.

The 28-year-old has long been linked with a move to Brisbane Road after two top seasons with the claret and blue outfit.

The versatile forward was arguably the best player at Villa Park this season and finished as the third top scorer in the entire WSL.

It now looks as if the Lilywhites are going to land the Scotland international with a move looking increasingly likely.

Hanson is now set to join Tottenham, with an announcement potentially in the pipeline ahead of the summer transfer window.

The Scot has certainly proved herself in the past two years after a difficult patch, followed by a top start to life at Villa Park.

Things didn’t work out initially after her 2023 move from Manchester United, but things have certainly turned around.

Having scored 12 goals in just 22 WSL appearances this campaign, there is plenty to appreciate about the forward.

That has prompted Spurs to move to sign the Aston Villa star to bolster Martin Ho’s side ahead of the new campaign.

BBC Sport journalist Emma Sanders reported on Wednesday that Tottenham have agreed a deal to sign Hanson after strong interest in May.

The Villans have accepted a bid for the attacker, and although the fee is unknown, she will sign her contract shortly in North London.

Hanson will soon join Beth England at Tottenham, with the future looking bright ahead of the new campaign at Brisbane Road.
