Tottenham are interested in signing striker Jonathan David, amidst concerns over Richarlison’s future.
David’s impressive goal-scoring record has attracted attention from several English clubs, and he’s available for just £25 million this summer.
Alongside David, Tottenham are also pursuing Aston Villa’s Jacob Ramsey as a central midfield option.
Tottenham are considering making a move for Lille striker Jonathan David, amid doubts over the future of Richarlison, according to Football Insider.
David enjoyed a prolific campaign last season, netting 26 goals across all competitions for the French outfit. This exceptional form has inevitably sparked interest from several clubs, including the aforementioned Spurs, as well as the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea and West Ham.
The 24-year-old is reportedly keen on a switch to the English top flight, and it’s believed that due to his contract expiring in 12 months’ time, Lille could be willing to accept an offer in the region of £25 million. Tottenham have added David to their striker shortlist, as the Lillywhites are preparing to find a successor to the possibly departing Richarlison, despite already signing Dominic Solanke from Bournemouth for up to £65 million.
Spurs Want David
The in-demand striker will likely leave Lille this summer
Alongside a potential Richarlison replacement, Spurs are in the market for another central midfielder this summer, having already signed Archie Gray from Leeds. Postecoglou is seeking an energetic box-to-box profile, and has identified Aston Villa’s Jacob Ramsey as a potenial acquisition to fill this role.
Spurs are interested in signing Ramsey having completed the Solanke deal, and the player may be interested in the move as he’s keen on playing more football next season. The 23-year-old started just eight Premier League games last season in an injury-ravaged campaign, and the arrivals of Ross Barkley and Amadou Onana at Villa Park could only force him further down the pecking order under Unai Emery.
