Since Harry Kane left for Bayern Munich a year ago, Spurs haven't had a legitimate center striker. However, they finally got a new one this month.
Ange Postecoglou's team made a strong move to get Solanke from Bournemouth to sign. Solanke just finished a great season on the South Coast.
The 26-year-old scored 19 goals and set up three others for the Cherries in the Premier League last season, helping them avoid relegation.
Solanke was signed by the Lilywhites for £65 million. He spent the summer on vacation after not being picked for England's Euro 2024 team.
Does Tottenham need another striker?
Football Insider says Tottenham wants to add another striker during the summer transfer window.
The story says that the Lilywhites are very interested in signing Jonathan David, a shooter for Lille who recently played for Canada in the Copa America in the United States.
David could be a pretty cheap target for European clubs since he only has one year left on his current deal with Les Dogues.
The Canadian is thought to be available for around £25 million, which is a price that won't stop many of Europe's biggest teams from wanting to sign him.
Aside from Tottenham, several other Premier League teams are said to want to sign the 54-time international this summer.
How many goals could David score for Spurs?
It is important for clubs that spend a lot of money to know what kind of success they will get from the new player.
David has been reliable for Lille over the past few years, scoring 26 goals in back-to-back seasons in all categories.
The Canadian scored 19 goals in 34 Ligue 1 games in 2023–24. If he does well for Spurs in the Premier League, he could be in the running for the Golden Boot, given that Erling Haaland has a rough term.
There is some doubt about whether the Lilywhites need David's help since they already have Solanke on their team before the new season starts.
