Tottenham is preparing to recruit Mohamed Kudus.

Tottenham Hotspur News reported on the 1st (Korea time) "Jermaine Defoe, the former England striker, made a strong impression in North London, and Tottenham continues to look for a player of similar style."Now the club has spotted a player who can succeed Defoe."

Tottenham's choice is Cudus of West Ham United. He is known to be a player of a similar style to Defoe. Defoe is a legendary striker who ranks seventh in Tottenham's career scoring list (143 goals).




Tottenham manager Thomas Frank has been moving to strengthen his scoring ability since his early days. In particular, as the possibility of Hishalisson's summer transfer has increased, strengthening the offense has become more urgent.

Tottenham scored 10 fewer goals in the English Premier League (EPL) last season than in the previous season. In particular, he was struggling against weak teams who played defensively.

As a result, Tottenham is making Mohammed Kudus its top target. According to European football transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano, the club has started contacting the Kudus agent.

Kudus is a player with outstanding goal-scoring and dribbling abilities, a resource that can play a key role in Thomas Frank's tactics in games where opponents lower the line and give up possession.

Frank often preferred a two-top tactic during his time at Brentford, meaning Kudus could take on the role of forming a two-top with Dominic Solanke to assist a bigger and more powerful striker.

It is similar to the way Defoe was paired with tall strikers such as Peter Crouch and Dimitar Berbatov at Tottenham in the past. Indeed, Defoe was one of the last players to move from West Ham to Tottenham, and Kudus could take a similar route.




The recruitment of the Qudus is also in line with Son Heung-min's sluggishness. Son Heung-min's poor offense last season is also the cause of his poor scoring ability. If Kudus is successfully recruited, Son Heung-min's opportunity to play next season is expected to drop sharply.

Frank has Solanke as a built-in striker and can use him with the Kudus. Through this, it is expected to have a new offensive system that maximizes scoring ability.
