Tottenham Hotspur have exploded into the race to sign Fulham attacker Harry Wilson this summer, although they face competition from some of the Premier League's biggest clubs for his signature, according to TEAMtalk.
While Tottenham's short-term focus remains on staying in the Premier League under new manager Roberto De Zerbi, they also need to start making plans for what they are going to do in the transfer market this summer to ensure there is a big improvement next term.
Of course, the level of target they can bring in will likely depend on which division they find themselves in for 2026-27, with relegation to the Championship still a distinct possibility with seven matches left to play.
De Zerbi will begin work on the training ground immediately to ensure that his Spurs side are ready to try and pick up their first league win of 2026 when they travel to Sunderland a week on Sunday.
Tottenham are currently one point clear of the drop zone, but they will start the match against the Black Cats in the bottom three should West Ham United beat Wolves 48 hours earlier.
Tottenham Identify Harry Wilson as 'Key Target'
According to TEAMtalk, Tottenham are set to join the growing list of top Premier League clubs looking to prise Wilson away from Craven Cottage this summer.
The 29-year-old is set to be one of the most in-demand Premier League free agents this summer, with his Fulham contract currently set to expire at the end of the season.
The Cottagers have made their position clear on wanting to keep the Wales international in west London, but no agreement has been reached with an exit appearing increasingly likely given the level of interest in his services.
The report adds Wilson has emerged as a key target for Spurs and new manager De Zerbi, with a move across London a 'concrete' possibility.
However, Tottenham will face competition for his signature from Liverpool and Manchester United, who could both be competing in the Champions League next season, with the duo also keen on the attacker.
Wilson is Perfect Signing for Tottenham
If De Zerbi does keep Tottenham in the Premier League, then Wilson could be one of the smartest signings they make this summer.
The Welshman has been in outstanding form for Fulham in the Premier League this season, scoring 10 goals and providing six assists in 29 top-flight outings for the Cottagers.
That form has led him to be described as 'one of the best players in the Premier League in that final third' by one PA journalist, and it's hard to argue given his goal contribution returns.
The fact that Wilson can be landed on a free transfer is just an added bonus, and if Spurs can get him for nothing, it would allow them to put more money towards other positions in a squad that looks to need a major overhaul.
