GiveMeSport say that a move for Tammy Abraham has not been ruled out by Tottenham Hotspur, who might consider stepping up their interest in the Roma star if their top striker targets prove out of reach.
The report says that while Abraham is on Spurs’ radar, he is not considered one of the ‘priority targets’ by Ange Postecoglou for the time being.
However, it is claimed that the England international is a tempting option for the North London side and they could consider a move for him later in the window.
The 27-year-old is expected to cost around £20m-£25m and since he is considered homegrown and has experience in the Premier League, Tottenham have not ruled out a move for him.
The outlet states that for the moment, Tottenham are looking at the likes of Feyenoord’s Santiago Gimenez and Brentford’s Ivan Toney.
However, the Bees are demanding £60m for Toney, which is said to be £15m more than what the Lilywhites want to pay.
The publication adds that Spurs are not the only ones alert to Abraham’s situation, with Aston Villa and West Ham United also continuing to monitor the former Chelsea man, who is thought to be open to a return to England this summer.
Spurs Web Opinion
Abraham might be a decent squad option to have but many Spurs fans would hope to see the club bring in a forward who would improve the starting eleven and elevate the side to the next level, which the Roma star would not do.
Ivan Toney, on the other hand, could fit the bill pretty well. Plus, he is Premier League proven.
