Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing the LOSC Lille striker Jonathan David in the coming months.
The 24-year-old striker will be a free agent in the summer of 2025 and he is yet to sign an extension with the French outfit. According to a report from TuttoJuve, Tottenham are in the running to sign the player and they will face competition from several european heavyweights. Premier League rivals Aston Villa are keen on signing the player as well.
The report from the Italian publication claims ‘watch out for Tottenham’, as clubs queue up for the Canadian international.
There have been rumours that Fabio Paratici could play a key role in the move as well.
David has done quite well for the French outfit in recent seasons and he has started the current campaign in fine form as well. The 24-year-old striker has eight goals and two assists to his name in all competitions. He could prove to be an exceptional acquisition for Tottenham, especially on a free transfer. The North London club will be able to secure a pre-contract agreement with him in January. If they can sign him for free, it would be a masterstroke for the Premier League side.
Tottenham could use another striker
They could certainly use more quality and depth in the attacking unit. Although they have signed Dominic Solanke earlier this season, they need another reliable goalscorer to support him. The Canadian seems like the ideal acquisition on paper and his arrival would allow them to invest in the other areas of their squad as well.
The 24-year-old has proven himself in French football, and he has the technical attributes to do well in the Premier League as well. He will want to play for a club capable of pushing for trophies and moving to Tottenham will be an exciting opportunity. He will look to prove himself in the Premier League and hit the ground running at the North London club if the transfer goes through.
