Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing Gift Orban from Belgian club KAA Gent.
According to Sacha Tavolieri, discussions have been undertaken between the two clubs and Tottenham could offer ‘as high as €30 million’ for the talented young striker.
The 21-year-old is highly rated around Europe and he has a big future ahead of him. He could develop into a prolific goal scorer with the right coaching and experience.
He managed to find the back of the net consistently last season scoring 20 goals in just 22 appearances across all competitions.

Tottenham need to add more depth and quality to their attack and the 21-year-old would be a solid, long-term investment.
Tavolieri claims that the target has been ‘validated by Ange Postecoglou’ and it remains to be seen whether Tottenham can secure an agreement with the Belgian club now.
The newly appointed Australian manager prefers a free-flowing attacking style of football and it is no surprise that he is looking to sign a bright young talent like Orban.
A move to Tottenham would be a major step up in his career and it could accelerate his development. Playing along against top-class defenders in the Premier League will help him improve further.
It will be interesting to see if Tottenham come forward with a concrete proposal for the players. €30 million could prove to be difficult to turn down for Gent and it wouldn’t be surprising if they decided to sanction his departure in the coming weeks.
