Tottenham Hotspur want to sign Patson Daka from Red Bull Salzburg, Football London claim.

Tottenham are looking at bringing in a new forward this summer and Daka has now emerged on their radar.

The rapid forward has been attracting a lot of attention recently, with his performances for Salzburg causing sides to sit up and take notice.

And it seems that Tottenham have now had scouts watching the Austrian based hitman, as they seek to add more cover for Harry Kane.

Any Spurs observers would surely have been impressed with Daka’s impact last night, as he scored four times in one half as Salzburg demolished Brengenz in the Austrian Cup.

Daka’s attributes have seen him labelled as ‘the next Thierry Henry’ by his former coach recently (News Diggers) and his arrival at Spurs could be extremely appealing.

As an alternative to Harry Kane there looks like to be few better options than Daka.

His pace could be a real threat against tiring defences, and he would make Tottenham even more of a danger on the counter attack if he was to sign.

The Sun have claimed that any buying club would have to pay £20 million to sign Daka.
