Tottenham Hotspur are still yet to dip into the transfer market to try to go some way towards replacing Harry Kane.

Tottenham are on the search for a striker

The Spurs club record goalscorer decided to swap North London for Bayern Munich on the cusp of the start of the 2023/24 Premer League season last summer and his absence has seen a number of names linked with a potential arrival.

Football Insider are claiming that Tottenham are continuing to keep an eye on Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke.

Spurs are still keeping tabs on Dominic Solanke

Last season, an in-form Solanke scored 19 goals and registered three assists in 38 Premier League outings, which was his best return in the English top flight (transfermarkt).

The BBC reported last week that the Bournemouth striker has a £65m release clause in his contract that can only be activated by certain clubs.

Tottenham simply cannot risk to spend big money on Solanke on the back of one decent season, he needs to score 15+ goals across multiple Premier League campaigns in order to warrant the sort of fee which the Cherries want.

Instead, a move for Ivan Toney who could end up costing less money due to a lack of interest from other clubs and the fact he is Premier League-proven across more than one season makes him a better candidate.
