Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou has revealed that the club could look to improve their attacking options heading into the January transfer window.
Tottenham are lacking in depth in that area of the pitch, and it will be interesting to see if they can bring in a dynamic attacker who is capable of slotting anywhere across the front three.
The North London club invested in Dominic Solanke at the start of the season and the former Bournemouth star has done reasonably well. However, he has not been prolific enough and Tottenham need someone who can share the goalscoring burden with him.
Although they have Richarlison on their books, the 27-year-old Brazilian striker has struggled with persistent injury problems. Postecoglou has now revealed that the situation with the South American is frustrating because he has the potential to make a defining impact, but his availability remains a concern.
“With Richarlison it has been frustrating because I see the potential in him and to be fair when he’s been fit he’s always made an impact. That’s what you kind of hold on to, but there’s no doubt we need some bolstering in that front third over the next couple of transfer windows,” he said to Football London.
“Dom [Solanke] coming in has been great, but again we can’t overload him either, because ultimately, even if he stays fit and nothing happens, performance will invariably drop if his energy levels drop. So it’s something we’re aware of and need to plan for.”
Tottenham will be hoping to secure Champions League qualification for the next season and they need quality additions to bounce back strongly and put together a winning run during the second half of the campaign.
