Tottenham Hotspur have now entered talks to sign Lille striker Jonathan David, who is out of contract this summer, according to a report from Get Football News Italy.
Thomas Frank's side will be looking to bring in reinforcements in the coming weeks and months after struggling in the Premier League during the 2024/2025 season. The north London club have been linked with a move for a host of players in the summer transfer window, but they're yet to make a significant signing for the senior squad.
Ange Postecoglou helped build a squad with a strong, young base, with many players having high potential. We haven't seen the best of some of their stars from last season, and Frank could be the man to help unlock them as they prepare for the 2025/2026 campaign.
Tottenham Open Talks to Sign Jonathan David
Napoli and Juventus are also keen
According to a report from Get Football News Italy, Tottenham have opened talks to sign Lille striker David, who is out of contract at the end of the month. Napoli and Juventus are also actively trying to secure his signature, but Tottenham's involvement has now slowed down their progress in trying to bring him to Italy.
David, described as 'one of the highest-rated strikers in the world by Breaking The Lines, could be a smart addition, especially considering he's available on a free transfer this summer. The Canadian international has also been labelled 'one of the best strikers in the world', meaning it could be a real bargain for Spurs if they get a deal over the line.
It will be interesting to see whether David comes straight into the starting XI if he does sign, considering Spurs invested heavily in bringing Dominic Solanke to the club from fellow Premier League side Bournemouth.
