Having already set their sights on Mohammed Kudus, Tottenham Hotspur are now reportedly targeting a move worth £35m to sign a goalscoring midfielder ahead of Manchester United.
Tottenham readying second Kudus bid
The Lilywhites are wasting no time in pursuit of West Ham United's Kudus. After the Hammers reportedly rejected their opening offer, those in North London are reportedly already readying a second bid. This time, they'll have to table more than £50m, but with the winger keen on the move, Spurs will hope to get their second deal of the summer over the line.
Even if Kudus does join Matthys Tel on Spurs' list of incomings, however, Daniel Levy still has plenty of work to get done if Thomas Frank is to avoid the same fate as Ange Postecoglou.
With that said, the Lilywhites have also reportedly set their sights on the likes of Daizen Maeda and even Inter Milan's Denzel Dumfries. The latter would particularly stand out as an excellent addition following his role as Inter reached the Champions League final last season. Compared to current options, the Dutchman would add plenty of competition.
Up against Pedro Porro for a starting role, Dumfries would likely hand Frank quite the selection headache and although any reports remain at an early stage, he could be one to watch.
The same can be said about another impressive star too, who has also found himself on Spurs' radar as they look to kick on with their summer business.
Tottenham now targeting Orkun Kokcu swoop
As reported by Caught Offside, Tottenham are now targeting a move to sign Orkun Kokcu in a summer swoop which will cost just €40m (£35m) if they push on and secure a deal ahead of Manchester United.
The Benfica man is at the peak of his powers at 24 years old and is attracting plenty of attention as a result. Having scored an impressive 12 goals and created a further 11 assists from midfield in all competitions last season, to say that he would hand Spurs a much-needed threat in the middle of the park would be an understatement.
U23 scout Antonio Mango was full of praise for Kokcu back in 2022, describing him as a "great midfielder" with "brilliant ball control", and he has only kicked on since swapping Feyenoord for Benfica two summers ago.
