Tottenham Hotspur should consider making a move for the Wolverhampton Wanderers forward.
Mauricio Pochettino has worked wonders during his time in charge at Tottenham, and many fans and pundits alike are tipping his side to secure a top four finish once again this season.
The Argentine failed to strengthen his squad during the summer transfer window, however, so a sustained push for the Premier League title seems unlikely.
One particular area where Spurs undoubtedly need to improve is their centre-forward department, with more competition required for Harry Kane.
Fernando Llorente was brought in to the club in the summer of 2017, but he has struggled to establish himself, whilst Vincent Janssen’s career in north London appears to be over already.
With this in mind, Poch should be on the look-out for a new striker in January, and an interesting option for them could be Wolves hitman Diogo Jota, who is attracting interest from Juventus, according to the Mirror.
The 21-year-old joined Wolves permanently from Atletico Madrid this summer for around £12.3 million, having spent the previous season on loan at Molineux, and he has really impressed for Nuno Espirito Santo’s side, scoring 18 goals.
Jota possesses exceptional technical ability, and his penchant for dropping deep and linking the play between midfield and attack would make him the perfect strike partner for Kane.
Whether Wolves would be willing to sell the Portuguese ace to another Premier League club is doubtful, but money talks, and Tottenham should test the Black Country outfit’s resolve with a firm bid for the striker in January.
