Tottenham Hotspur sanctioned the departure of Harry Kane earlier this summer.
The 30-year-old England international has
joined Bayern Munich and Spurs will need
to replace him adequately.
Kane was undoubtedly one of the best goal-
scorers in Premier League history and his
departure will certainly be a blow for the London club.
They will need to replace his goal-scoring output and Tottenham have been linked with a number of players recently.
Journalist Alasdair Gold has now revealed
during a Q & A session with Football London
that he would be stunned if Tottenham do
not bring in someone who can lead the line for them.
“I’d be stunned if they don’t bring in
someone new who can play through the
centre though, like a Gift Orban or Brennan
Johnson-type, or simply Gift Orban or
Brennan Johnson,” Gold said (h/t TBR).
Players like Gift Orban and Brennan
Johnson have been linked with a move to
Tottenham in recent weeks.
Orban has been a quality striker for the
Belgian club Gent and he scored 20 goals
across all competitions last season. The 21-
year-old Nigerian is highly rated around
Europe and he has the potential to develop into a top-class striker.
On the other hand, Johnson is a winger for
Nottingham Forest and he scored 10 goals
across all competitions last season.
Both players will add creativity and goals to
the side and it remains to be seen whether
Tottenham can pull off the signings before
the summer window closes.
Finances should not be an issue for them
given the fact that they have received a
substantial amount of money for Kane.
The opportunity to play for Tottenham will
be an attractive option for both players and
regular football at a high level would help
them develop and fulfil their potential.

Tottenham Hotspur are interested in
acquiring the services of 25-year-old FC
Lorient defender Montassar Talbi.
According to Josh Hughes, Tottenham
Hotspur are keen on having Montassar Talbi
in their ranks before the end of the transfer
window. Spurs are looking to further bolster
their defence, and they are interested in
signing the 25-year-old Ligue 1 defender.
Talbi joined FC Lorient last summer from
Rubin Kazan. He has gone from strength to
strength since making the move to France.
The 25-year-old defender featured in a total
of 41 matches last season and was on the
pitch for over 3,600 minutes. He was a rock
in the heart of the defence and even
contributed towards three goals.
The Tunisia international was on fire in the
FIFA World Cup 2022. He put in some
impressive shifts in the global event and
attracted a lot of attention. On the back of
his performances in the World Cup and for
the Ligue 1 outfit, quite a few top European
clubs have their eyes set on Talbi.
While he still has two years left on his
contract with Lorient, the 25-year-old could
be on the move in the ongoing transfer
window. And, Tottenham seems to be a
possible destination for the former Kazan defender.
Spurs were not at their best defensively last
season. As a result, they are looking to sign
multiple defenders to ensure their new boss
Ange Postecoglou has multiple options to
work with. The London club have already
acquired Micky van de Ven in the ongoing window.
But, they are still keen on adding another
defender to the mix, and Talbi is one of the
names on their transfer target list. The 25-
year-old’s impressive performances have
caught the eye of people at Spurs and they
believe he could be a great fit for the club.
They are expected to make moves to sign him in the near future.
Meanwhile, Tottenham are also looking to
offload Eric Dier. The England international
has been an important player for the North
London club, and he played an integral role
last season.
