Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly eyeing up a double swoop in the transfer market once they secure the services of Dominic Solanke.
Solanke is said to be on the verge of completing a £65million move to the north London outfit.
The Bournemouth man found the net 19 times in the Premier League last term, with Solanke unfortunate not to have made England’s Euro 2024 squad.
His arrival should help fill the gap left behind by record goalscorer Harry Kane, who penned a nine-figure move to Bayern Munich 12 months ago.
But Spurs aren’t expected to rest on their laurels when Solanke’s signature is secured. Tottenham will instead turn attention to securing two more players, as per The Times.
A left-back is believed to be on the capital club’s radar after Ryan Sessegnon and Ivan Perisic were let go earlier in the transfer window.
Spurs are also said to be targeting a winger, with Ange Postecoglou not currently content with his options in attack.
No team inside the top seven scored fewer goals than Tottenham last season, indicating attacking reinforcements might be needed if Spurs want to kick on and challenge for the top four spots.
It’s suggested Spurs like the look of Pedro Neto, having previously scouted the Wolverhampton Wanderers ace.
Eberechi Eze has also been mooted as a potential option for the two-time English champions, although Crystal Palace’s asking price could force Spurs to look elsewhere.
Their London rivals are rumoured to be demanding a fee in the region of £60million for Eze – a valuation Spurs aren’t willing to match.
Spurs have already spent big this summer, with Solanke set to join £30m man Archie Gray among the new arrivals at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The teenager excelled for Leeds United in the Championship last season and is being tipped to go on and become a full England international.
Whereas Yang Min-hyuk has agreed to a move from Gangwon FC, but the 18-year-old won’t join the Spurs squad until January 2025.
Postecoglou and co. will be keen to have the majority of their transfer dealings wrapped up before the return of the Premier League in just over a week’s time.
Spurs head to Leicester City in the first Monday Night Football of the season, before welcoming Everton to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium a week later.
