Tottenham get transfer response as Santiago Gimenez set for £34m move
Tottenham target Santiago Gimenez is set for a £34million transfer away from Dutch club Feyenoord, according to TBR Football.
The news outlet reported on 23 January that he is set for a move to AC Milan, handing Spurs a major transfer blow.
The North London outfit are keen on signing a new striker in this transfer window, having already missed out on Randal Kolo Muani.
Tottenham desperately need to sign a new striker
Gimenez would have been an excellent addition to Spurs’ squad, given his remarkable goal-scoring form at Feyenoord and his young age, promising future development.
His potential move to AC Milan is indeed a significant setback for the North London outfit, who are in desperate need of bolstering their attacking line.
With injuries to attackers like Dominic Solanke, Wilson Odobert and Timo Werner, and Richarlison only just returning from injury, their front line is thin and vulnerable.
The urgency for a new striker is palpable, especially to maintain their competitive edge in both domestic and European competitions.
It’s crucial for Spurs to pivot quickly from this disappointment, scouting and securing an alternative who can not only fill the immediate gap but also contribute effectively to the side moving forward.
It remains to be seen who the decision makers end up bringing to the club before the deadline.
