Tottenham Hotspur saw Harry Kane become a star more than five years ago now, but have still failed to find true competition for him.
2016 signing Vincent Janssen was a major flop, whilst Fernando Llorente – signed just a year later – left the club on a free transfer last summer.
This has simply gone on for too long now. Tottenham need to find another striker this summer, easing the burden on Kane’s shoulders.
With money tight this summer, finding a quality addition could be difficult – but one striker became a free agent on Sunday.
Croatian star Mario Mandzukic confirmed yesterday that he has left Al-Duhail by mutual consent, meaning he is looking for a new club.
The 34-year-old only made the move to Qatar in December, but leaves after two goals in 10 games.
Formerly of Juventus, Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich, Mandzukic has bags of top-level experience, winning nine league titles, seven domestic cups and one Champions League in his career.
A powerful target man who could fill a similar role to Llorente, Mandzukic is surely attractive to Jose Mourinho on a free transfer – and Spurs fans want to see him join.
Many took to Twitter to respond to Mandzukic’s tweet, believing that he is the ideal striker to support Kane whilst begging the club to make a deal happen.
