Tottenham should look at potentially available Everton striker.
Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino has made clear he does not wish to play Vincent Janssen, leaving the club’s striker options short.
As Harry Redknapp told TalkSport, adding a player might not be easy. He said: “Where are you going to find a top class player who is going to come in for just four and five weeks, but when Harry Kane is back fit you’ll be on the bench? It’s very difficult to find somebody.”
One place Tottenham should look is towards Everton, for striker Cenk Tosun.
Tosun has failed to shine under Marco Silva this season and The Mail report Everton are willing to cash in for around £20 million.
Currently considered a back-up at Everton, he would be swapping the Toffees’ bench for Tottenham’s when Kane returns – with the bonus of European football and playing for a team higher up the table.
He is an upgrade on Fernando Llorente, who needs replacing at the end of the season when his contract expires anyway.
For Spurs it would give them a new option, signing a striker who once scored a winner against them for Besiktas.
Tosun would also be eligible to play in the Champions League.
Options are certainly thin for Tottenham, but standing still and doing nothing surely is not an option and Tosun would be a savvy short term addition.
