However, the Lilywhites face significant competition from Bayern Munich, who are also pursuing the player.
Fuhrich is currently under contract with Stuttgart until the summer of 2028, having renewed his deal earlier in February. Despite this long-term commitment, he could leave the club if his €20 million release clause is triggered.
In the recently concluded Bundesliga season, Fuhrich has been instrumental for Stuttgart, making 34 league appearances and contributing eight goals and seven assists.
Besides his offensive capabilities, Fuhrich has demonstrated a remarkable work ethic, covering a total distance of 295.4 kilometres, with 774 sprints and 2,033 intensive runs. His defensive contributions are equally impressive, with 236 tackles won.
The 26-year-old’s performances have not gone unnoticed internationally either, as he has earned four caps for the German national team.
Tottenham’s interest in Fuhrich aligns with their strategy to boost the squad for the next season.
However, Spurs will need to fend off competition from Bayern Munich, who are eager to secure Fuhrich’s services and keep the player in the Bundesliga.
The competition for Fuhrich’s signature is expected to be intense. The Lilywhites hope to replicate their success from the previous transfer window when they secured Radu Dragusin despite interest from Bayern.
