French attacker Arnaud Kalimuendo has been linked with a move away from Rennes, and Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing him.
According to a report from RMC Sport, Ligue 1 outfit Stade Rennais will demand around €30-35 million for Arnaud Kalimuendo. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham are prepared to pay up. Spurs have the resources to get the deal across the line.
The French attacker had 22 goal contributions last season, and there is no doubt that he would be an excellent addition for Tottenham. They need more quality and depth in the final third. However, the North London outfit may face stiff competition from other Premier League clubs for his signature.
Tottenham managed to win a European trophy last season, and they will look to build on it and do well in the Premier League next term. Spurs finished in the bottom half of the league table last season, and they need quality players to bounce back strongly. A club of their stature should be fighting for major trophies consistently.
The opportunity to move to the Premier League will be quite exciting for Kalimuendo. It would be a massive step up in his career, and he will be looking to prove himself at the highest level. If he manages to establish himself as an important player for Tottenham, it will boost his chances of playing for his national team regularly as well.
Tottenham need another striker
Tottenham have spent a substantial amount of money on Dominic Solanke, but the England international has not been able to find the back of the net regularly. They need more depth in the final third, and signing another striker to support Solanke would be ideal. The 23-year-old French attacker has shown his ability in Ligue 1, and he has the physicality and technical attributes to do well in the Premier League as well.
Kalimuendo will look to take on a new challenge at this stage of his career, and moving to Tottenham would be ideal for him. The North London outfit will be able to provide him with ample opportunities and the platform to show his qualities in the UEFA Champions League next season.
