Tottenham Hotspur target Jonathan Ikone could be free to leave Lille once Jonathan David and Alfredo Morelos arrive, according to La Voix Du Nord.

Lille want to strengthen their attack, with David and Morelos now on the verge of moves to the French club.

But it seems that Lille could have to make sales to fund the moves, with Tottenham target Ikone potentially free to make a switch once his replacements have been signed.

Le10 Sport claim that Spurs want the Frenchman, although his asking price may have to be reduced for Jose Mourinho’s side to seal a move.

Lille were said to be demanding £62 million for the attacker, which would put him well out of Tottenham’s reach.

Ikone scored four goals and claimed seven assists over the past campaign, making him one of the most in-demand attackers in Ligue 1.

His arrival at Spurs would hand Mourinho more attacking options, as he is able to play up-front or just behind the striker.
