Home Europe Tottenham and Fulham in the race for a star worth 30 million euros – Spurs…
Tottenham and Fulham race for €30m star – Spurs ‘in close contact’ with entourage
According to De Morgen, Fulham has joined Tottenham Hotspur in pursuit of Gent Gift Orban star.
The striker has scored 26 goals in 28 games since joining Belgian club Stabaek in January and six of those have come this season. This led him to attract interest from clubs in the UK and across Europe.
Tottenham are one of their main contenders in the Premier League. They should be wary of a potential war with Fulham.
Marco Silva’s side are looking for a new striker after selling Aleksandar Mitrović to Al-Hilal and have identified the 21-year-old as one of three targets to replace the Serb striker.
Fulham has yet to make a specific offer for the Jupiler Pro League team. It is the same with Tottenham but they have acted, which means they are ready to bid to sign the player.
It is said that Orban’s name is still on the negotiating table at Spurs and that they are in ‘close contact’ with those around him.
Tottenham need to ‘shrink the squad’ before making a concrete offer to sign the Nigerian.
He will be the backup for Ange Postecoglou or Spurs will lend him.
However, De Morgen thinks Tottenham’s immediate plan may not be suitable for the leader.
They added that he prefers Lille’s sports project but the Ligue 1 outfit can’t afford their €30m price tag.
The website also says Orban’s €30m price tag will make Fulham and Tottenham ‘think twice’ about signing him this summer.
