Tottenham Hotspur sanctioned the departure of Harry Kane earlier this summer.
The 30-year-old England international has joined Bayern Munich and Spurs will need to replace him adequately.
Kane was undoubtedly one of the best goal-scorers in Premier League history and his departure will certainly be a blow for the London club.
They will need to replace his goal-scoring output and Tottenham have been linked with a number of players recently.
Journalist Alasdair Gold has now revealed during a Q & A session with Football London that he would be stunned if Tottenham do not bring in someone who can lead the line for them.
“I’d be stunned if they don’t bring in someone new who can play through the centre though, like a Gift Orban or Brennan Johnson-type, or simply Gift Orban or Brennan Johnson,” Gold said (h/t TBR).
Players like Gift Orban and Brennan Johnson have been linked with a move to Tottenham in recent weeks.
Orban has been a quality striker for the Belgian club Gent and he scored 20 goals across all competitions last season. The 21-year-old Nigerian is highly rated around Europe and he has the potential to develop into a top-class striker.
On the other hand, Johnson is a winger for Nottingham Forest and he scored 10 goals across all competitions last season.
Both players will add creativity and goals to the side and it remains to be seen whether Tottenham can pull off the signings before the summer window closes.
Finances should not be an issue for them given the fact that they have received a substantial amount of money for Kane.
The opportunity to play for Tottenham will be an attractive option for both players and regular football at a high level would help them develop and fulfil their potential.
