Tottenham Hotspur suffered a major setback yesterday when they failed to land their primary target, Eberechi Eze.
The Spurs were close to sealing the deal with Crystal Palace, and they have also agreed on personal terms with Eze.
However, Arsenal swooped in just at the right time to hijack the deal. And now, Thomas Frank is once again looking for alternatives.
After parting ways with Son Heung-min this year, the Spurs are struggling big time to find a replacement for the South Korean.
They are looking to sign Savinho from Manchester City as a replacement for Son. However, the Citizens are trying to block the move as they are not ready to let the Brazilian leave.
Thomas Frank wants to sign a forward player. Also, the Danish manager is looking for an opportunity to sign a striker.
With the transfer window getting towards the final week, the Spurs are now scrambling to find the right solution for their attacking front.
After the recent developments with Eze and Savinho, Tottenham Hotspur have now set their sights on a forward who plays for Atletico Madrid in LaLiga.
According to Fichajes, Tottenham Hotspur are now eyeing a move for Alexander Sorloth from Atletico Madrid.
The 29-year-old Norwegian is looking for a change. After the arrival of Julian Alvarez, he is not the first-choice striker for Diego Simeone.
Even after scoring 24 goals in 53 matches, Sorloth feels inferior to Alvarez. That is why he wants to return to the Premier League.
Alexander Sorloth did play in the Premier League before with Crystal Palace. However, his performance was far from satisfactory.
He scored one goal in 20 games for Palace before leaving the club. Now, he has revived his career and become a prolific goal scorer.
So, Tottenham Hotspur will have a genuine goal scorer upfront if they can land Alexander Sorloth this summer.
