Tottenham Hotspur’s hunt for a new centre-forward continues as the transfer window approaches, now just a couple of weeks away.
Spurs have been linked with several strikers for potential summer signing, and the latest name on their radar is Fulham’s Rodrigo Muniz.
According to GOAL Brasil journalist Thiago Fernandes, the Lilywhites have shown interest in the Brazilian forward ahead of the transfer window.
He claims that Tottenham have made initial contact with Fulham regarding a move for the striker.

The North London outfit are not alone in this pursuit; their city rivals Chelsea have also made inquiries about Muniz.
Despite being under contract at Craven Cottage until 2026, Muniz could be on the move due to the interest from top English clubs.
A product of Flamengo’s youth academy, Muniz has made a significant impact in the second half of the Premier League season.
He notably went on a streak, netting 8 goals in 8 games, bringing his total to 10 goals in 33 appearances across all competitions. (Transfermarkt)
Muniz’s impressive form in the latter part of the campaign has caught the attention of London clubs.
Fulham’s valuation of Muniz has increased, with the club now seeking between €30 million and €40 million for the highly sought-after talent.
The 23-year-old has a current market value of €20 million, making the Cottagers’ asking price reasonable given his recent performances.
TBH Says:
As Tottenham aim to bolster their squad, Muniz’s addition might improve their attacking options. However, fans may not be convinced if Spurs end up signing the Fulham man after being linked with the likes of Ivan Toney and Santiago Gimenez for so long.
