Tottenham keen on 24-goal ace, but face competition from London rivals
Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United have been linked with a move for the Sevilla striker Youssef En-Nesyri. According to Mundo Deportivo, the Hammers retain an interest in signing the 24 year old along with their London rivals but the player would prefer to join a bigger club. En-Nesyri has been in outstanding form for the Spanish outfit this past season and there is no doubt that he could improve both West Ham and Tottenham. Both clubs will have to improve their attacking options in the summer and bringing in a quality goal scorer like the Moroccan would be a smart decision. The Hammers were reliant on Michail Antonio as their only goal scorer last season and David Moyes must look to bring in an upgrade this summer. West Ham will be playing in the Europa League and they cannot hope to j...
Euro 2020 Golden Boot: Cristiano Ronaldo or Harry Kane?
Just one game remains of Euro 2020, with England facing Italy at Wembley Stadium on Sunday to determine the European champions. Of course, all the focus will be on the full-time result. But one subplot to the game involves England captain Harry Kane, who has the opportunity to win his second Golden Boot of the year. Ronaldo currently leads the Golden Boot race with five goals and one assist As it stands, Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo leads the way in the Euro 2020 goal charts with five. He is level with Czech Republic’s Patrik Schick, and one ahead of Kane, Emil Forsberg, Karim Benzema and Romelu Lukaku on four. If two players are tied for goals, the player with the most assists out of the two is awarded the prize. As Ronaldo has one assist, he is placed ahead of Schick, who has none. If th...

Spurs will strike gold if Mendes-Nuno combo can seal deal for £34m La Liga star – SL View
The task of rebuilding the squad won’t be easy for Nuno Espirito Santo, even if Fabio Paratici is there to help him out, especially with Tottenham Hotspur operating on a tight budget. With Nuno’s arrival, Spurs have also opened the door for super-agent Jorge Mendes to bring his clients to the north London club. And it seems, Mendes is playing a key role to bring Goncalo Guedes to Tottenham this summer. According to a recent report from Super Deporte, Mendes is doing everything he can to take Guedes away from Valencia this summer to Tottenham. Guedes joined Valencia from Paris Saint-Germain in a deal worth €40 million (£34 million) in 2018, after spending the previous campaign on loan at Los Che. He has scored 23 goals in 136 games for the club. Last season he scored five goals and pro...
Tottenham negotiating summer move or playmaker, Nuno has given his approval

The 31-year-old could go out on loan this summer, and the Premier League club are in talks to secure his services. Spurs could definitely use more creativity in their midfield, and Pjanic would be a superb addition. He has a different skill-set to Tanguy Ndombele and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg. The three players could form a quality partnership in the middle of the park. The player has been linked with a move back to Juventus, and Pjanic is reportedly keen on returning to the Italian club. It is understandable why the midfielder wants to return to Italy, given his previous performances f...

Tottenham linked with a summer move for 24-yr-old attacker, Jorge Mendes involved
Portuguese international Goncalo Guedes has been linked with a move away from Valencia this summer and Tottenham Hotspur have been mentioned as a potential destination. According to Deporte Valenciano, the player’s agent Jorge Mendes is doing everything he can to bring the La Liga attacker to the London club.

Guedes was rated quite highly before his move to Spain and he could prove to be a quality long term investment for the Londoners. Spurs need to add more depth and quality to their attack and the versatile Portuguese attacker seems like an ideal fit in theory. The Valencia attacker can lead the line and operate as a wide forward as well. The 24-year-old Portuguese ...

As far as Tottenham are concerned, Hugo Lloris is nearing the end of his deal and the Londoners will have to start planning for a future without him. Gollini has done well for the Italian outfit this past season...

Man City targeting Barcelona man as possible Harry Kane alternative
Manchester City are looking at Barcelona forward Antoine Griezmann as a possible alternative to Harry Kane, according to Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo. Griezmann joined Barcelona for a nine-figure sum back in 2019 from La Liga rivals Atletico Madrid. He has shown flashes of brilliance since then but has fallen well short of living up to his price tag, scoring 35 goals in 99 appearances in all competitions. Griezmann hasn’t hit the heights of his best days at Barcelona Nonetheless, there is no denying his huge talent. Throughout his years at Real Sociedad and Atletico Madrid, the 30-year-old established himself as one of the finest players in the world, hitting over 200 goals in all competitions from 2009 to 2019.
