Tottenham Hotspur are one of many Premier League clubs to have made an enquiry to sign an exciting Paris Saint-Germain forward, according to journalist Fabrice Hawkins.

Tottenham's transfer focus is on strengthening their attack in the remaining weeks of the summer window, having already transformed Roberto De Zerbi's defence and attack.

De Zerbi confirmed following the club's 2-0 pre-season friendly win against Auckland that he now wants to complete the attacking positions, with another couple of 'important' players wanted on top of the half-a-dozen who have already arrived through the doors at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Spurs currently have the likes of Mathys Tel, Richarlison, Dominic Solanke and Mohammed Kudus to select from in attack, but the Italian boss wants more as he looks to lead the north London outfit up the Premier League next term.

Kudus is nearly back to full fitness having been on the sidelines since January, but it remains to be seen how match fit he will be for the start of the season after such a long absence.

Tottenham signed Randal Kolo Muani on a season-long loan deal from PSG last summer, but it ultimately failed to pay off for either the club or the player, as he ended the season with just one goal and one assist in the Premier League.

Now, Spurs are targeting another forward from the Champions League holders.

According to RMC Sport in France, Tottenham have made contact with the Ligue 1 champions in recent weeks over a deal to bring attacking sensation Ibrahim Mbaye to England.

Spurs aren't the only Premier League club to formalise their interest in the 18-year-old, with Liverpool and Manchester City also keen, along with Bundesliga duo Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen.

Mbaye is seen as one of the brightest prospects to emerge from the PSG academy in years, but the club isn't necessarily ruling out a summer exit for the talented teenager.

However, they value Mbaye in excess of €50m, with the 'phenomenon' recently joining the Gestifute agency run by Jorge Mendes, who also represents other PSG players like Vitinha, Joao Neves and Warren Zaire-Emery.

Tottenham Plotting Shock Move for Former Chelsea Star

Tottenham may have added two top midfielders to their ranks in Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes already this summer, but reports in Turkey suggest they are also considering a shock move for former Chelsea star N'Golo Kante.

The Fenerbahce star may be 35 years of age and in the twilight years of his successful career, but his performances were still enough to earn him a spot in the France 2026 World Cup squad.

Kante may not have played a single minute throughout the tournament for Didier Deschamps' men, but his experience was clearly seen as vital behind the scenes.

While we know that De Zerbi does value experienced players in his squad, Kante would very much be a back-up compared to some of the other options he already has to pick from.

Nevertheless, the defensive midfielder has won the World Cup, Champions League and Premier League on two separate occasions, and would bring huge know-how to a Tottenham squad.
