Tottenham Hotspur are said to be keeping an eye on Moise Kean.

Relegation battles simply have to be a thing of the past for Spurs, who should be consistently competing for a top-five finish in the Premier League.

However, to ensure that is the case, recruitment over the next 12 months needs to be flawless.

Spurs have made far too many errors in judgment in that regard in the past few seasons, as showcased by the horrendous levels of underperformance.

And yet Tottenham could make another transfer error this summer, with Kean supposedly lined up for a potential move.

Moise Kean update is alarming for Tottenham

With Dominic Solanke struggling with fitness, and Richarlison seemingly only capable of scoring goals when a game is as good as dead, Tottenham need a striker.

They’ve lacked that elite-level finisher since the exit of Harry Keane, which is somewhat understandable.

However, the latest report from an insider who goes by the handle Szyexcl, who is followed by several reputable journalists, states that Kean is on their list of transfer targets.

understand moise kean is one of the names on roberto de zerbi’s list of striker targets ahead of the summer window.

fiorentina forward is a name being discussed internally as #thfc continue to assess their options in attack.

The 26-year-old scored eight Serie A goals last season for Fiorentina, though his numbers from previous campaigns should serve as a warning.

How has Kean fared in the Premier League?

The most notable thing that Kean ever did in the Premier League was get subbed off not long after coming on for Everton, which speaks volumes.

He managed just two goals in the Premier League for the Toffees, despite having made 32 appearances across three different campaigns.

Given that his last spell was over four years ago, it’s fair to say that he will have matured as a player, but his numbers suggest that he hasn’t matured enough to warrant interest from Tottenham.
