Report: Tottenham could battle three PL rivals to sign Canadian star this summer

According to Inews, Tottenham Hotspur and several other Premier League clubs have been alerted after Lille put up Jonathan David for sale.

Jonathan David looks to be on the way out of Lille

David has been one of the most prolific strikers across Ligue 1 over the last few years but with the centre-forward having just one year left on his contract, he is expected to leave the club this summer.

Last week, Lille president Olivier Letang confirmed that the 24-year-old would be allowed to leave Stade Pierre Mauroy this summer if the right kind of offer is received (Fabrizio Romano).

It has now been revealed by Inews that the French club would be willing to sell the centre-forward for just £25m this summer.

Spurs and Man United are interested in David

This news is said to have alerted several English clubs, with the report stating that Spurs could battle the likes of West Ham United, Aston Villa and Man Utd for the player.

Out of these sides, it is United who are credited with the most serious interest in David, with the Red Devils said to be keen on adding more firepower to their frontline.

The publication adds that the Canadian international ranks high on their striker shortlist, with many at the Manchester club, including incoming sporting director Dan Ashworth, thought to be a fan of the Lille star.

Spurs Web Opinion

I would much rather see Spurs sign David rather than spend big on the likes of Santiago Gimenez.

However, I suspect that Tottenham have their sights on Ivan Toney and are waiting for Brentford to bring down their asking price.
