Tottenham Hotspur have been urged to replace Dejan Kulusevski with the Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise.
Format Tottenham player Jamie O’Hara has urged the North London club to sign Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise to replace Dejan Kulusevski in the summer transfer window. Olise has been linked with Manchester United as well.
“Eze, I love watching him, but Olise, for me, star player,” said O’Hara on talkSPORT. “Good player. He glides past people. Obviously, Mateta, up front, he is banging in goals, but them two, mate. He is going to end up at the top. I know Palace would try to keep hold of him as much as they can.”
When asked by Gabriel Agbonlahor whether he’d have Olise at Spurs, O’Hara said, “I would snap your hand off for him. Kulusevski, see you later.”
The 22-year-old Frenchman is valued at £60 million, and it will be interesting to see if Tottenham decide to make a move for him at the end of the season. There is no doubt that he is a prodigious talent with a big future ahead of himself, and the French winger could develop into a top-class player with the right guidance. Tottenham need more depth and quality in the wide areas and the 22-year-old would be the ideal acquisition.
Michael Olise would be a quality addition
Kulusevski he has been a key player for Spurs joining the club from Juventus. But his performances have been quite underwhelming this term. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham are prepared to part ways with him in the summer. Meanwhile, Olise has 10 goals and five assists in the Premier League despite missing almost half of the season with injuries.
Olise has the quality to develop into one of the best attackers in the Premier League, and he would be a superb long term investment for the North London club. Tottenham will look to compete for major trophies in the coming seasons, and signing quality players should be a top priority for them.
It remains to be seen whether they can beat the competition from Manchester United. The Red Devils have been linked with a move for the Crystal Palace star for a while, and they are desperate to bring in attacking reinforcements.
Olise would be an upgrade on someone like Antony at Old Trafford, and Manchester United have the resources to pay £60 million for him as well. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
