With Griffiths poised for a loan move, three English clubs have been said keen. Sheffield Wednesday, Preston North End and Charlton Athletic are all interested in a loan deal for Griffiths, as per The Mirror.

Griffiths is yet to make his senior debut but after impressing with Spurs and Lyon’s academies, a debut campaign in the Championship could await the striker.

Griffiths, 20, scored a stunning 41 goals and laid on 12 assists in 44 appearances for Spurs’ Under-18s, also playing seven times for their Under-23s prior to leaving for France in the summer of 2018. Griffiths joined Lyon, becoming one of a host of young British stars to continue their development in Europe.

With Lyon, Griffiths has scored two goals in four games for their Under-19s side in the UEFA Youth Cup, continuing to impress with their second-string side.
