Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for 24-year-old Canadian international striker Jonathan David.
According to a report from Inter Live, Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle United are keen on Jonathan David as well. However, Tottenham could have an advantage in the transfer race thanks to their connections with Fabio Paratici.
The Italian football director still wields great influence at the North London club, and he has close contacts with the striker’s representatives. David will be a free agent next summer, and several clubs are keen on securing his signature. However, Paratici could help Tottenham overtake the competition and get the deal done.
The North London outfit need to bring in a quality striker, and David would be a superb addition. He has proven himself in Ligue 1 with LOSC Lille, and there is no doubt that he has the quality to succeed in the Premier League as well.
He could be a key player for Tottenham, and he could share the goalscoring burden with Dominic Solanke. The player has been linked with a move to the Premier League in the past as well, and he will be attracted to the idea of joining Tottenham in the coming months.
Arsenal, Chelsea, and Newcastle keen as well
Arsenal could use another quality striker like David, especially with the way Gabriel Jesus has performed. The Brazilian has not been able to score goals consistently, and Arsenal need to bring in an upgrade. Similarly, Chelsea need an upgrade on Nicolas Jackson.
At Newcastle United, they have been heavily dependent on Alexander Isak for goals. The Swedish international needs more support in the final third, and Newcastle United need to invest in a quality striker. David would improve all four clubs, and it remains to be seen where he ends up.
The Canadian striker is entering the peak of his career, and he will want to join a club capable of pushing for trophies. Tottenham have an ambitious project and a talented squad. There is no reason why they cannot help him win trophies in the near future. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham can get the deal done.
