Tottenham Hotspur fans on Twitter are totally on board with the speculation that Joshua King could be moving to North London.

Spurs completed their third signing of the summer on Sunday by welcome Matt Doherty in a £13.4 million deal.

The Irish right-back follows Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and goalkeeper Joe Hart to Tottenham.

The Lilywhites loaned young striker Troy Parrott to Millwall earlier this summer, leaving Jose Mourinho light on options up front.

Mourinho, like Mauricio Pochettino before him, desperately needs adequate back-up to Harry Kane, evident by how Tottenham’s season effectively ended back in January when the England striker fell injured.

According to talkSPORT, chairman Daniel Levy is interested in taking the relegated Bournemouth striker to the capital.

The Norway international scored six Premier League goals last term as the Cherries dropped into the Championship.

And quite a few Tottenham fans are more than willing to offer him an escape route. Here’s how they’re reacting to the speculation:
