Medio Tiempo have claimed that Tottenham Hotspur may find themselves in a three-way battle for Feyenoord striker Santiago Gimenez next summer.

Tottenham have been credited with an interest in Gimenez by quite a few publications over the last couple of months (Mirror).

However, over recent weeks, it has been suggested by various sources that Feyenoord do not wish to lose their star striker mid-season (David Ornstein – BBC Transfer Gossip Daily Podcast).

Summer transfer battle over Santiago Gimenez

Medio Tiempo have now named Tottenham as one of the contenders for Gimenez’s signature, with the publication suggesting that the striker may level De Kuip next summer.

It is explained that Ange Postecoglou’s men want to add an elite forward to their squad and that the Feyenoord star is ‘among the favourites’ as he is seen as an ‘ideal option’ by the North London club.

However, the outlet explains that Spurs will not have a free run at the Mexican international, who is also thought to be on the radars of their London rivals, Chelsea and West Ham United.

Spurs Web Opinion

While it appears quite certain that Tottenham will make a move for a centre-forward next summer, it is too early to speculate on who their top target would be.

It would depend on how well Timo Werner does during his loan spell and whether Richarlison is able to maintain his current form over the next five months.
