Tottenham transfer news: Ex-Man Utd talent and striker linked as struggles continue
As Tottenham’s struggles on the pitch continue both in terms of form and injuries, player arrivals have become paramount in North London heading into the final week of the window
Tottenham Hotspur have less than a week to potentially save their season as the January transfer window enters its final days.
Ange Postecoglou brought in goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky from Slavia Prague earlier this month due to Guglielmo Vicario’s injury being one of many that the Aussie manager is having to contend with.
But with just days left of the window, Postecoglou will surely be looking to add more reinforcements to his depleted and struggling squad.
Here's the latest transfer talk from the Tottenham Stadium.
Goal-shy striker targeted
With Dominic Solanke sidelined and more firepower wanted by Postecoglou, Spurs are reportedly interested in signing Ajax striker Brian Brobbey.
According to the Record, Spurs are edging closer to a deal for the 22-year-old Dutchman. However, Brobbey’s form in front of goal is far from convincing and unlikely to be a signing that would excite Spurs fans.
Brobbey has scored just once in 17 Eredivisie games this season and only two goals in ten Europa League games across qualifying and the league phase. The former RB Leipzig striker has found himself before ex-Arsenal youngster Chuba Akpom and Manchester United flop Wout Weghorst.
Angel Gomes
Speaking of former United players, Spurs are said to be interested in signing England international Angel Gomes.
Gomes is a man in demand, with his old club and Newcastle United both linked with his signature, and he could be a free agent come the summer with his deal at Lille expiring at the end of June.
The 24-year-old made his England senior debut last year and has impressed in various roles in the middle of the park.
Timo Werner
One player who could be on his way out of north London and the Premier League is Timo Werner. The versatile German forward has been out of form and is now subject to interest from MLS side New York Red Bulls.
The 28-year-old is on loan at Spurs from RB Leipzig after extending his original six-month loan spell last January until the end of the current campaign. Spurs reportedly have an £8.5million option to buy in his loan deal.
