Tottenham Hotspur will reportedly look to sign 21-year-old Spanish international Samu Aghehowa from FC Porto in the winter transfer window.
According to a report by TEAMtalk, Samu Aghehowa is the subject of interest from Tottenham Hotspur. The Lilywhites are eager to bolster their offensive unit by signing a striker in the winter transfer window. So, the 21-year-old FC Porto centre-forward has emerged as a target for the North London outfit.
The 2024/25 UEFA Europa League winners are ready to back Thomas Frank by signing a striker in the winter transfer window. Meanwhile, FC Porto will demand around £80 million to part ways with the Spaniard next year. The report has revealed that Samu’s “clinical finishing represents the profiles” Tottenham will want in the second half of the 2025/26 season.
How has Samu Aghehowa fared at FC Porto?
Samu Aghehowa has established himself as one of the world’s best young strikers since joining FC Porto from Atletico Madrid last year. While the 21-year-old was impressive during his loan spell with Deportivo Alaves in the 2023/24 season and won the gold medal with Spain at the 2024 Paris Olympics, he could not establish a foothold at Atletico Madrid.
Meanwhile, the Spanish striker enjoyed a solid debut campaign with FC Porto, and he has been hot off the blocks in the 2025/26 campaign. The youngster has amassed nine goals and one assist in 15 appearances thus far. Meanwhile, Samu’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several well-known clubs. Tottenham Hotspur will be among the prospective suitors vying for his signature.
London calling?
Tottenham Hotspur’s interest in Samu Aghehowa makes sense. The Lilywhites are combing the market for a striker, even though they completed a loan move for Randal Kolo Muani in the summer transfer window. However, it is unclear if the French international will complete a permanent move to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium next year.
Additionally, recent reports have claimed that Tottenham may cash in on Richarlison next year due to financial reasons. Meanwhile, Dominic Solanke has yet to make his mark since joining Tottenham. So, the North London club must sign a striker in the winter transfer window, with Samu emerging as a viable target. They are ready to back Thomas Frank by securing the Spaniard’s services in January.
