Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing the Villarreal striker Georges Mikautadze.
The 24-year-old has joined the Spanish club this summer after an impressive spell with Lyon. He scored 17 goals and picked up 11 assists in all competitions last season. He has done reasonably well since joining the Spanish club as well.
According to a report from Fichajes, Tottenham would be willing to offer €60 million. Nottingham Forest are keen on the player as well.
Spurs could use Georges Mikautadze
Spurs need more depth in the attacking unit, and signing a reliable Striker would be ideal for them. The Georgian International could compete with Dominic Solanke and Richarlison for the starting spot. More competition for places would help Tottenham improve as a team.
They have started the season well, and they are third in the league table. They will look for a place in the top four and do well in the cup competitions. They need to keep improving the squad, and a striker should be their priority.
The opportunity to join the Premier League club could be exciting for the 24-year-old. Tottenham are a big club, and they could provide him with the platform to fight for trophies. They have recently won the UEFA Europa League. They will be an attractive destination for most players.
Can Spurs convince Villarreal to sell?
It will be interesting to see if they can convince Villarreal to sell the player after signing him in the summer. The Spanish club paid around €30 million for him. They will be able to double their investment if they agree to sell him. It remains to be seen how the situation develops over the next few weeks.
Tottenham have put together a quality team, but they are still lacking a reliable finisher. The Georgian International could fill that void.
