Tottenham Hotspur have been looking to bring in a new striker in the ongoing winter transfer window as the chiefs at Hotspur Way continue to get frustrated about the lack of availability from Richarlison, the current deputy to first-choice Dominic Solanke, and are going into a window vying for a striker for the second time running, and the Lilywhites are looking to bring in-form Wolves forward Matheus Cunha to White Hart Lane.
Cunha has been enjoying some elite ball in the ongoing campaign, with the former Atletico Madrid versatile forward being the shining light in the struggles at Molineux Stadium, netting 10 goals (19 appearances) in the English top tier already, and Daniel Levy is looking to take advantage of this purple patch of form as he looks to make a move for the striker in January.
Spurs receive Cunha blow
However, while Tottenham and other potential suitors were pondering a move for the Brazilian, Wolverhampton Wanderers felt the presence of other clubs and got in conversation with the 25-year-old over a possible new contract. In what comes as a massive blow for the Lilywhites, Vitor Pereira & Co. are closing in on securing his future in the West Midlands, per the Telegraph.
This will come as a massive blow for the North Londoners given how a potential duo of Dominic Solanke and Matheus Cunha would have pushed the Lilywhites attack to somewhere along the best in the English top tier. Though now it’s time for Daniel Levy to consider alternatives, and the club chairman is already pulling strings as he boards the flight to Paris to negotiate a move for Randal Kolo Muani.
