Tottenham Hotspur have been cycling through rumored attacking transfer targets at a rapid pace this summer, and Spurs supporters have to be worried, given the track record of this club under the "guidance" of Daniel Levy, that they will simply come up empty-handed.
Already, Tottenham have struck out on their top two right winger options in Brentford and Bournemouth breakout stars Bryan Mbeumo and Antoine Semenyo, and they have recently cooled their interest in previous top target Eberechi Eze.
That's three proven Premier League starters in the attack whom Tottenham were closely linked with who are no longer on their radar. Eze may still but, but it's abundantly clear that he's no longer anywhere near a priority for Levy and Co.
Now, it appears boom-or-bust West Ham forward Mohammed Kudus is the main catch on the minds of Tottenham Hotspur this summer, as they are hoping to buy him at a lower price than his 85 million pound release clause after Kudus turned in a stinker of a 2024/25 season for the Hammers.
Tottenham are actually negotiating with a good player
According to Fabrizio Romano on his YouTube channel, Tottenham have made contacts for Kudus and are in ongoing talks to sign the talented 24-year-old, who is himself keen to make the switch to a bigger London club that just won the Europa League. Per Fab, Spurs are pushing for this transfer to happen, and they specifically want to make this move with Thomas Frank in mind.
So far, Frank has gotten none of what he's wanted. Tottenham backed out of the Mbeumo race early, and then they lost out on an even easier-to-sign Brentford favorite of the Danish coach's, as Arsenal poached Christian Norgaard from right under Tottenham's noses. And they haven't even showed interest in Brentford star striker Yoane Wissa after his 19-goal season.
Tottenham are going to have to sign someone for Frank, who has worked magic with so many talented attackers at Brentford like Kevin Schade, Mikel Damsgaard, Ivan Toney, and then Wissa and Mbeumo in their major breakouts last season (39 combined goals).
