Tottenham considering signing ‘incredible’ 21-year-old striker who broke Mo Salah’s record last season

Tottenham Hotspur are looking to strengthen this summer and they have many targets. One they are now quite interested in is Gift Orban.

It is a weird summer for Tottenham. There is definitely excitement with new manager Ange Postecoglou coming in and top players being bought, but they had a very poor campaign last season.

James Maddison has been a solid addition and with Spurs not in Europe next season, they will be expected to be back in a top European qualification spot.

Now, the Transfer Confidential report by The Daily Mail reported on Spurs’ interest in Orban. The report said: “Gift Orban of Gent is another thought to be under consideration”. They are currently assessing attacking options this summer.

 

Tottenham tempted to move for Gift Orban

The ‘incredible’ 21-year-old is highly-rated and haas attracted a lot of interest. Chelsea, Manchester United and Fulham have all been linked.

Despite his age, he is already making history as he broke a record last season. The record was one held by Mohamed Salah.

In March, Orban managed to score a first-half hat-trick in the UEFA Europa Conference League. He managed to score the three goals in three minutes and 25 seconds

This set a new record for the fastest hat-trick in UEFA club competitions. Salah was the record-holder beforehand when he managed to score three in six minutes and 12 seconds.

Orban definitely looks like a very exciting talent and it will be very interesting to see if he moves to the Premier League soon.

He would be a great option for Spurs, and if they could keep Kane and sign a young and upcoming forward like Orban then it would be a fantastic summer.

‘As I understand it’: Club are now absolutely desperate to sell their £32m player to Spurs – reporter

Tottenham Hotspur’s hunt for a centre-half continues, and we’re almost at the point where they just need to get a body through the door.

Indeed, after weeks and weeks of struggling to sign a new defender, Spurs are getting to the point of being desperate, and there is one player they could easily sign.

Clement Lenglet has been linked with Tottenham for a little while now, and it’s been reported that a deal to bring Lenglet to Spurs would be easy to conclude.

Now, according to Danny Kelly, speaking on The View From The Lane, Barcelona are absolutely desperate to sell Lenglet to Tottenham.

Indeed, Kelly says that his understanding is that Barcelona would do anything to sell Lenglet to Tottenham, including building a spaceship to get him to north London as quickly as possible.

Barca want Lenglet to join Spurs

Kelly shared what he knows about the £32m player.

“They can’t get a teenager from Blackburn over the line because of arguing about money they found behind the back of the sofa. They can’t get Clement Lenglet, who, as I understand it, not only would Barcelona bring him directly to the Lane, they would build a craft or a spaceship to bring him to Spurs quicker, nevermind buying the quality of centre-halves the manager is going to need,” Kelly said.

Get him in

Honestly, at this point Tottenham should just go and do this deal.

Lenglet is a player who could slot into this backline easily – as he showed last season, and while he’s not amazing, he’s a decent depth option who understands his teammates well.

Spurs are in desperate times now as they look to add to their defence, and while Lenglet isn’t the ideal addition, at least it’s something to keep them ticking over for now.
