Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham are considering making a move for Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who could be available for free this summer.
According to a report from Fichajes, Tottenham are interested in acquiring the services of Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin as they look to bolster their attack ahead of next season. The North London club could sign the English international on a free transfer with his contract at the Merseyside club running out at the end of the season.
After coming up the ranks at Sheffield United, Calvert-Lewin made the move to Everton in the summer of 2016. The Englishman has only gone from strength to strength since, and he has been a key figure in the Toffees’ first team over the years.
Calvert-Lewin has featured in a total of 269 matches for the Merseyside club, and he has contributed towards 91 goals. While the English striker has been their go-to man up top, things have not been that great for him of late, as he has struggled to stay fit. Despite that, Everton are pushing to keep the 28-year-old at the club, but they might not be able to do so.
Calvert-Lewin’s contract runs out at the end of the season, and he does not seem to be interested in signing a new deal. While the Toffees have tried to offer him an extension, everything indicates that he won’t renew. With him all set to be available on a free transfer, there is no shortage of interest in him.
Tottenham push for the signature of Calvert-Lewin
Tottenham have emerged as a potential destination for the English striker. The North London outfit want to add more quality to their frontline ahead of next season. While they did make a significant investment to sign Dominic Solanke last summer, the move has not gone according to plan.
Now, Spurs are looking to bring in Calvert-Lewin to support Solanke and challenge him for a place in the starting XI. While the Everton striker has struggled with form and injuries in recent times, Tottenham believe a change of environment could help him rediscover his best.
The North London club have already started working towards a potential transfer as they look to convince the 28-year-old to join them as a free agent. They are looking to lure him with an ambitious project and a prominent role in their team.
