Tottenham Hotspur are desperate to turn things around. After the loss in the North London derby, they are in a battle to survive in the Premier League.
They are just four points away from the relegation zone. After the first game, Igor Tudor knows he has a tough job on his hands.
Reviving the Spurs’ fortune could be one of his toughest tasks. However, amid the crisis, the Spurs are planning for next summer.
They know that signing a prolific striker will be very important. They already have Richarlison, Dominic Solanke, and Randal Kolo Muani.
Now, there are talks of making Kolo Muani’s move permanent. However, they are looking for a striker who has proven in the past that he can deliver goals in the Premier League.
However, the Spurs are not the only club trying to sign the striker. Newcastle United are also looking to sign him. They did sign Nick Woltemade last summer as a replacement for Alexander Isak.
The German striker has shown flashes of brilliance at times. However, he is yet to reach the heights of Isak. That is why Eddie Howe wants another striker next summer.
According to TEAMtalk, both Tottenham and Newcastle are eyeing a move for Darwin Nunez from Al-Hilal. The former Liverpool striker is having a tough time in Saudi Arabia.
His club, Al-Hilal, has signed Karim Benzema from out of nowhere. As a result, Nunez is lacking game time at the moment. That is why he might look to return to Europe.
With both Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United showing interest, it is possible that the Uruguayan would be excited to return to the Premier League.
Now, it will depend on whether they can agree on a fee with Al-Hilal, as his contract is set to expire in 2028.
