The Story in 60 Seconds

Journalist David Ornstein reports that Tottenham Hotspur could make a major move to sign a striker during the January transfer window. Speaking on The Athletic FC podcast, Ornstein stated that Tottenham's hierarchy is willing to invest heavily to back manager Roberto De Zerbi if the right long-term target becomes available. However, he warned that the market lacks top-class options, making mid-season deals challenging.

Tottenham's attack has struggled this season, producing just 10 goals across 10 Premier League matches. Dominic Solanke has battled form and fitness issues, while Omar Marmoush has scored only once on loan from Manchester City. Consequently, the club may consider reviving interest in French forward Eli Junior Kroupi following his recovery from a foot fracture.
