Tottenham keeping tabs on Galatasaray striker Vedat Muriqi
Tottenham are one of several clubs interested in 25-year-old forward Vedat Muriqi, according to Sporx (h/t Sun).
The lanky forward scored against England for Kosovo in a Euro 2020 qualifier and has been prolific for Galatasaray too.
Muriqi has scored nine goals and provided two assists from 13 Turkish league games this season.
The centre-forward has six goals and two assists for Kosovo over the past season and is great in the air.
The report claims that we are interested in signing a back-up for Harry Kane but there are others keen on the 25-year-old.
Leicester City are interested in the Kosovo striker but so are Lazio, Frankfurt and Monaco (h/t Sun).
Spurs could do with cover for Kane given that we allowed Fernando Llorente and Vincent Janssen to leave in the previous summer window.
We didn’t sign any replacements and that could be a problem if Kane picks up an injury.
The Englishman was in great touch in the 5-0 win over Burnley and scored a brace too.
Tottenham returning to winning ways
Spurs bounced back from their defeat to Manchester United with an easy win over the Clarets.
Son Heung-min, Lucas Moura and Moussa Sissoko all scored with Kane too. We need to keep picking up the wins as Chelsea lie six points ahead of us in fourth place.
