Some of the top teams in the Premier League have been contacted about the possibility of signing a striker who Pascal Chimbonda recently urged Tottenham Hotspur to secure.

Tottenham Hotspur appear to be in the market for a new striker, with central defender Micky van de Ven topping the club’s scoring charts.

Matt Le Tissier recently encouraged Spurs to sign Ivan Toney, a centre forward who has previous experience of working with Thomas Frank.

Troy Parrott is another name being mentioned after his recent heroic displays for the Republic of Ireland. Former Tottenham manager Tim Sherwood even criticised Spurs for selling Parrott last year.

Serhou Guirassy could move to the Premier League

Ex-Spurs player Pascal Chimbonda has also offered his verdict on where his old club should be looking to invest in January. Chimbonda encouraged Tottenham to sign Serhou Guirassy, a striker who has previous links with the side from North London.

Spurs were interested in Guirassy before he made the move from Stuttgart to Borussia Dortmund, with Ange Postecoglou rating the player.

Guirassy could be on the move again as his release clause is expected to be activated in January. According to TEAMtalk, Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester City, Chelsea and Manchester United are all teams who could be offered the chance to sign the Guinea international.

Tottenham are the only club of the so-called big six not to be declared by the news outlet as one of the clubs who could sign Guirassy.

Spurs could end up with too many strikers

It seems unlikely that Tottenham will sign Guirassy, but there have been rumours about a number of forwards who could be on the club’s radar,

However, Dominic Solanke is nearing his Spurs return and Mason Melia will officially link up with Tottenham in January.

There is also Dane Scarlett, who is already being given very few chances in the first-team. Therefore, Spurs must be wary of having too many players who operate in the same position.
