According to a report in the Mirror, Tottenham Hotspur are considering a January move for Malaga striker Sandro Ramirez, having been linked with him for the previous two transfer windows.

The Spaniard was on the books at Barcelona when he first caught the attention of Tottenham, but since his move to Malaga he has continued to prove what all the fuss is about.

Sandro took four La Liga matches to settle into his new surroundings before scoring in his fifth. He then followed that up with four goals and one assist in his next six outings.

With that kind of form it is no surprise Tottenham continue to be interested, especially with summer signing Vincent Janssen struggling to make any significant impact from open play thus far.

Tottenham would have been watching Sandro’s progress carefully to see if he could do it on a consistent basis away from Barcelona, and now he has proved he can it would be no surprise to see Spurs chairman Daniel Levy attempt a swoop.

Malaga will have other ideas, having only recently tied him to a three-year deal, but if Tottenham make a big enough bid it could be too good to refuse.

Even with Janssen, Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son at White Hart Lane, Tottenham still need more attacking options and Sandro’s form this season suggests he would be a wonderful addition to Mauricio Pochettino’s ever-improving squad.
