Tottenham Hotspur could look to bolster their attacking ranks in the summer months, according to reports - with Brentford star Bryan Mbeumo being in their sights after an exceptional campaign in the capital.

Mbeumo's brace against Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday afternoon saw him notch his 18th goal of the campaign, and his fourth brace in the top-flight alone. A hero in west London, his form has seen many clubs register their interest in his talents and Spurs could be one side to make a move for his services after being called one of the 'best players in the Premier League'.

Report: Mbeumo Could be Available at Right Price For Tottenham

The Brentford star has been in outstanding form for years

The report by CaughtOffside states that Mbeumo could be available for 'the right price' this summer - with a £50-55million tag being landed on the Cameroonian's head after his continued improvement in the Premier League for the Bees.

Thomas Frank's side are braced for approaches in the summer transfer window, with Mbeumo having scored 18 goals in the top-flight this season - a tally only bettered by Mohamed Salah, Erling Haaland and Alexander Isak in the Premier League.

Brentford 'inevitably' won't be able to keep hold of the wide forward, and Spurs are listed as 'liking' Mbeumo ahead of a potential addition to their squad over the summer transfer window. Newcastle United also hold an interest, though they may not be able to afford the £50million fee - and with Brentford resigned to losing MBeumo, that could see Tottenham enter the race to seal a deal for his signature.

Dejan Kulusevski and Brennan Johnson have locked down the right wing, but the Swedish star now competes regularly in the middle of the park and Johnson could need direct competition, which Mbeumo would offer in abundance as two different players - with Mbeumo being inverted on his left foot, whilst the Welsh star is a more 'old-school' winger on his right boot.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Bryan Mbeumo has four goals in 18 caps for Cameroon.

Mbeumo's 18 goals this season account for almost one-third of Brentford's tally of 56, and there is no doubting his attacking excellence - with the Bees now nine points ahead of Spurs, who have had an equally strong campaign when it comes to scoring goals, but an awful one in terms of defeats having registered 17 losses.
