Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing the OGC Nice attacker Evann Guessand this summer. 

The 23-year-old attacker has done quite well last season, and he scored 13 goals. He picked up 10 assists in all competitions as well. Tottenham have been scouting him for months.

The Ivorian could prove to be an excellent addition to the Tottenham attacking unit, and they have already made contact with his representatives regarding a summer move. However, they will face competition from multiple clubs this summer.

Guessand is a player in demand

Turkish outfit Fenerbahce are keen on the player, and Jose Mourinho has already spoken with the player. It remains to be seen whether he can beat his former club to the signing. 

In England, Leeds United, Brighton, Crystal Palace, Wolves and West Ham are keen on the player, as per TBR Football.

The 23-year-old could be attracted to the idea of joining a big club, and a move to Tottenham will be tempting for him. The opportunity to play in the Premier League can be hard to turn down. It remains to be seen whether the player is ready to move to England. 

Tottenham have the finances to get the deal across the line, and they will be hoping to convince the player.

They need more depth in the final third, and the 23-year-old will add some much-needed cutting edge to the side. He could share the goalscoring burden with Dominic Solanke next season. Although he is naturally a centre forward, he can operate on either flank as well.

Guessand has been likened to the Chelsea icon Didier Drogba because of his physicality and style of play.

Tottenham have appointed a quality manager like Thomas Frank, and they will look to improve the squad now. It remains to be seen whether they can bring in the necessary additions during the summer transfer window.
