In an interesting turn of events, Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing 28-year-old Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic.

The 28-year-old has been a reliable performer for Fulham over the years, and his performances have piqued the interest of the London club, who are looking to improve their attacking options.

After deciding to sell Harry Kane to Bayern Munich, it appears. Spurs intend to move more quickly to acquire a new striker to take his place.

Jonathan David, Mehdi Taremi, and Gift Orban are among the players mentioned as potential targets for the North London club, but Mitrovic is suddenly emerging as a likely choice.

Over the past few weeks, the Serbian was linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, and it has been implied that he is ready to make the move. But Al Hilal and Fulham could not agree on a transfer cost, and as a result, the deal fell through.

According to the source, Fulham doesn’t want to allow their star player to leave on the cheap and wants at least £50 million. Therefore, should Tottenham formally express interest, they need a lot of money to sign him.

Mitrovic with Fulham

Mitrovic joined Fulham in 2018, and ever since, he has served as the backbone of their attack.

Although the 28-year-old’s contract with the club has three years left, he is searching for a new challenge elsewhere. He appeared in 24 Premier League games last season and scored 14 goals.

The Serbian international possesses all of the attributes necessary to be successful at Tottenham. It will be intriguing to see if Spurs can meet the Cottagers’ demands for their talisman, though.
