Dominic Solanke was signed to replace Harry Kane at Tottenham Hotspur in the summer but up until now, the former AFC Bournemouth striker has not lived up to the billing.
Solanke has just scored eight goals in the Premier League this season but in fairness to him, Ange Postecoglou’s side have underwhelmed as a unit, as they sit in 17th place in the Premier League table.
Tottenham do not have an able understudy for the Englishman and despite Spurs’ faith in Mathys Tel, he is yet to blow up any trees since making his way to the Lilywhites on a loan deal in the winter transfer window.
Heung-min Son has struggled this campaign as well and Ange Postecoglou has rarely turned to him to put in a shift as a makeshift centre-forward, a position where he thrived last season.
Tottenham interested in signing Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic
Dusan Vlahovic is a player who has attracted Tottenham’s attention.
MARCA reported in 2021 that former Spurs boss Antonio Conte was keen on bringing Vlahovic in to replace Harry Kane.
GiveMeSport have now revealed that Tottenham could make a move for the Juventus centre-forward as well, who could be available for just £20 million.
Juventus are ready to sell Vlahovic and Tottenham are aware of his situation, as they could ramp up their interest soon.
Tottenham’s interest in Vlahovic is longstanding but several other clubs are bound to be in the race to sign him.
Manchester United believe that could sign Liam Delap and if that is the case, Chelsea, Newcastle United and West Ham United look likely to join Spurs in their pursuit of the 25-year-old.
How Spurs could sign Dusan Vlahovic on a discount
Vlahovic has not had his best season for Juventus, scoring just 14 goals in all competitions this season.
However, there is no disputing that the former Fiorentina frontman is a quality goalscorer.
While Juventus would like to sell the Belgrad-born goalscorer for £35 million, they are aware that they will have to accept offloading him for a cut-price fee if a suitor comes calling.
As a result, Tottenham could intensify their efforts to sign Vlahovic.
The same applies to the likes of Chelsea, Newcastle and West Ham, as the pursuit to sign the in-demand striker could turn into a transfer saga.
