There have been consistent reports that Spurs are in the market for a new striker this summer with Richarlison leaving a possibility with the latest reports suggesting that 22-year-old, Karim Adeyemi, has been offered to the Tottenham.
It was first reported by Football.London that Tottenham were in the market for a new striker this summer with the suggestion that a shortlist had been drawn up, with Jonathan David being one of the standout names.
Current striker, Richarlison is yet to feature in pre-season following an injury sustained towards the end of the season. Tottenham’s striker scored eleven times in the Premier League last campaign but is attracting interest from Saudi Arabian clubs, Al-Ittihad and Al-Qadsiah, setting up a potential exit this summer.

Any exit for Richarlison would surely make a new striker signing certain, but a deal for one could happen regardless of the Brazilian future at Spurs with Football Insider reporting that Ange Postecoglou is ‘obsessed’ with signing a centre-forward this summer.
HITC reported on the 16th of July that Champions League finalist, Karim Adeyemi, has been offered to Spurs alongside a host of other Premier League sides.
Borussia Dortmund signed the rapid striker two years ago from Austrian side, RB Salzburg, with Adeyemi going on to net fourteen goals in sixty-six games for the Bundesliga giants, however, it seems as though the German international has fallen out of favour at Dortmund. (TransferMarkt)
Borussia Dortmund surprisingly parted ways with manager, Edin Terzic, after falling just short of European glory last season with former play, Nuri Sahin, taking the post as Dortmund’s new manager.
The ex-Turkish international is reportedly not a fan of Adeyemi however and has told the forward he wants him to depart the club this summer.
Chelsea, West Ham, Newcastle and Tottenham are believed to be the English sides keen on capturing the unwanted German star with the 22-year-old’s agent in contact with the various potential suitors.
Spurs Web opinion
The fact that Sahin and Dortmund are willing to sell Adeyemi and are even encouraging him to leave would be a slight concern for Spurs fans and the interested clubs.
Adeyemi possesses plenty of pace and trickery to hurt teams, but as displayed in the Champions League final, the forward often struggles to provide a lethal finish which overall makes him an exciting but frustrating player to watch.
