Tottenham Hotspur need him most?

While Cakir is a very talented goalkeeper, Liverpool are not exactly in need of him, as they have Alisson.

Jordan Pickford is the number one goalkeeper for Everton, but with Hugo Lloris now 33 years of age, Tottenham could do with someone like Cakir who is young, playing regularly and will get better.
