Tottenham in danger of having transfer for Harry Kane replacement ‘hijacked’ in January
Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou wants to boost his forward line in January, but has competition from Italian giants AC Milan
After Tottenham’s 2-1 victory against Liverpool, head coach Ange Postecoglou claimed he has never been a fan of video assistant referees.
David, a striker for Lille, has four goals in all competitions so far this season after scoring 24 goals in Ligue 1 last year.The Canadian international, according to GiveMeSport, is eager to join the Premier League.
To prevent David from departing for nothing when his current contract expires in June 2025, he might be sold in January. The French team reportedly is open to any “reasonable” proposals after purchasing David from Gent in 2020 for £25.9 million.
Lille’s great striker is thought to be worth approximately £55 million, and Spurs may enter a January bidding war. According to Football Italia, AC Milan has expressed interest and might sabotage any future Spurs bid.
Giorgio Furlani, CEO of Milan, is ‘hoping to take advantage of the solid relationship’ with Lille, according to Daniele Longo of Calciomercato.com, to compete a deal for the Canadian striker.Tottenham could benefit financially after securing a transfer fee of £85.5 million for Kane after Bayern Munich swooped in for their desired player.
According to earlier reports, Tottenham has already spoken to Lille about a possible transfer and is ‘exploring a deal’ for the Canadian without having made a formal offer. Spurs have started the season strong, scoring 17 goals in seven Premier League games despite losing Kane in the summer.
Only Erling Haaland has scored more Premier League goals than Son Heung-Min’s six so far. Son Heung-Min has filled the vacuum left by England international Kane. Additionally, Spurs and gifted Mexican forward Santiago Gimenez of Feyenoord have been linked.
Voetbal4U of the Netherlands reports that Feyenoord wants to pay between £34.7m and £43.3m for Gimenez, which would be a club record. Since coming from Cruz Azul in July of last year, the 22-year-old has scored 32 goals in 52 appearances across all competitions, garnering interest from around Europe.
