Fabrizio Romano Reveals Latest on Tottenham Pursuit for Harry Kane Successor That Fans Will Love

Spurs Targeting Gift Orban and Jonathan David As Kane Replacement

Have Spurs Made an Official Bid for Orban or David?

Gift Orban of Gent and Jonathan David of Lille are two strikers that Fabrizio Romano says Spurs are keeping an eye on because they both have the potential to be excellent Kane successors.

He said to GiveMeSport: “Yes, both players are valued, but as we speak, there is still no formal negotiation for either player. They had some connections on the player’s side for Orban. Orban is enthusiastic about a prospective move to Premier League football and a significant club like Tottenham, so they pursued the player and made good contacts. However, there is yet no official bid.

What Qualities Do David and Orban Offer?

The two prospective attackers Spurs are interested in having demonstrated their effectiveness as goal scorers for their respective teams over the past few seasons. Orban is a threatening forward with a knack for finishing with precision. The Nigerian forward has 26 goals in 29 appearances for Gent after scoring six goals in seven starts to the 2023–24 season.

With Lille, David has also been progressing in Ligue 1. He scored 26 goals in 40 games for the French team previous season, which is a comparable type of goal scorer to Orban. Tottenham is considering the idea of signing one of the young forwards to be their next great striker because they both have their finest years ahead of them and can easily fit into the no. 9 role under Ange Postecoglou. It is uncertain whether the Lilywhites will try to sign either player before the transfer window ends.
