Tottenham Hotspur will be in the market for a new striker this summer, with Harry Kane needing some cover.
Jose Mourinho won’t have a big budget to work with, so Spurs have to be clever during the summer window.
A number of relegated players could make sense for Tottenham, including Bournemouth duo Josh King and Callum Wilson.
Not too far away, Watford may also lose players this summer – and Troy Deeney may be one player who attracts interest.
Deeney, 32, hit 10 goals in the Premier League this season, and his full record for Watford now stands at 133 goals in 398 games.
That’s a record of around one goal in three games, and whilst he may be past his best, Deeney will no doubt attract Premier League interest.
He is big and strong, a great leader and character in the dressing room and a fine option for Spurs to bring off the bench.
Since Watford’s relegation was confirmed on Sunday, Tottenham fans have been taking to Twitter to suggest that Deeney would be a good signing for them this summer.
Some think that Deeney ‘would be brilliant’, believing that he would be the ideal cover for Kane and is a real ‘Mourinho player’ due to his character, leadership and attitude.
