Two Premier League clubs could be interested in signing Tottenham Hotspur’s Aaron Lennon this summer, FootballDirectNews.com understands. It emerged on Thursday that Lennon could be one of six names axed by Tottenham in a major summer clearout by the club, and that has appeared to alert Aston Villa and Swansea City to his potential availability.
The England international has been at White Hart Lane for the majority of his career so far, signing from Leeds United back in 2005 and going on to make over 300 appearances for the club.

Villa and Swansea are both on the lookout for attacking players and could now compete for Lennon’s signature, according to a Tottenham insider.
