Spurs in contact to sign “Star of 40 million pounds sterling”

The attacking position of the midfielder is a person who caused Thomas Frank no end of the problem since he took the reins at Tottenham Hotspur earlier this summer.

The Dane made its ambitions to strengthen the obvious position early, after having made a movement of 60 million pounds sterling for the Nottingham Forest Morgan Gibbs-White star in July.

However, a decision failed the signing of the English before James Maddison underwent an LCA injury which could exclude him from the majority of the 2025/26 Premier League campaign.

Such situations have highlighted the need for an additional depth in position number ten, without an attacker’s midfielder currently recognized on the books, Pope Sarr playing in the role in the recent confrontation with Burnley.

All this could be about to change in the coming days, Frank now making key movements for several talents across Europe in order to add the necessary depth required for additional success.

Spurs preparing the movement for an eze alternative

Their ambitions to improve the team had seen the attention turn to the star of Crystal Palace Ebelechi Eze, although things took a tour of this front.

He has been a key target in recent months, but after talks between the sides, it now seems that the 27 -year -old goes to a move to Arsenal instead, as David Ornstein revealed on X, following a last pirate of the Gunners.

Other transactions may well have to be concluded to land other attacker talents, with the star of Atalanta Ademola Lookman of interest, according to TBR Football.

The report says that the Nigerian international has submitted a transfer request to the Serie A team, leading to his intermediaries to offer it to the Lilywhites.

He also indicates that Frank staff were in talks with the 27 -year -old and his representatives about a move, which led to transfer fees of 40 million pounds Sterling before the deadline of September 1.

Why the target of 40 million pounds of the Spurs would be a better signature than Eze

Eze was a brilliant light in the success of Palace in the past two months, scoring 25 combined goals and helping the side of Oliver Glasner throughout the 2024/25 campaign.

Many of his efforts appeared in key moments, especially in the FA Cup final, helping the Eagles win their very first major trophy with a 1-0 victory against Manchester City in Wembley.

The figures he produced in the Premier League last season would certainly give Frank the additional quality he wanted, while also highlighting the support he has of the owner Daniel Levy to help the team reach the following level.

However, an agreement for Lookman could prove to be a better addition for the team, offering additional quality, but also more experience at the higher level of the European game – something that Eze has missed in his career.

The Nigerian has already made 37 appearances in all European competitions, scoring 12 goals – including five in last seven campaign in the Champions League.

These accounts would be useful given the next European adventure of Lilywhites, while massively surpassing the palace star in many regions of 2024/25.

Lookman, which was labeled “world class” by commentator Mateo Bonetti, published more combined goals and assists in the action of the League, while managing a better shot on the target precision rate.

These figures would add a threat of necessary objective to Frank’s Side, something that is extremely important for a number ten, in parallel with their creative capacity.

The former Everton star also managed to impress in chance creation, making more key passes and passes in the 90 opposition box, capable of providing those who had to be crucial chances in front of the goal.

The domination of Lookman above Eze is also highlighted in its greatest number of racks in the box of 18 yards by 90, capable of maneuvering in dangerous positions.

Getting started in threatening areas is one thing, but the Nigerian presented his shooting statistics that he has the capacity to find the net itself – or even create a teammate if necessary.

The two players would be excellent additions to the Lilywhites team, offering key quality and depth in the pivotal areas of the field – something that was lacking in the first stages of 2025/26.

However, it is undeniable that the Atalanta star would be a better addition, not to mention a cheaper, given the difference of 20 million pounds sterling in their current requested prices.
