Tottenham make transfer decision after being offered 16-G/A attacker
Yesterday at 03:15 AM
Tottenham Hotspur have been offered the chance to sign the Japanese International attacker Kyogo Furuhashi.
The 30-year-old has been linked with the move away from Celtic and a report from TBR Football claims that Tottenham were made aware of his availability. However, the North London club have decided against signing him.
The Japanese International has played under Ange Postecoglou and he was a key player under the former Celtic manager. The player is now expected to join French outfit Rennes. He has been linked with Tottenham in the past as well.
It will be interesting to see if Tottenham decide to move on to other targets. It is no secret that they need attacking reinforcement. Signing a quality attacker should be one of their priorities.
Timo Werner has been linked with the move away from the club, and Richarlison has struggled with injury problems. Tottenham are lacking in depth in the attacking unit and they need another player who can share the goalscoring burden with Dominic Solanke.
Furuhashi could have been a quality acquisition. He is at the peak of his powers and the Japanese international knows Postecoglou's system well. He could have settled in quickly and made an instant impact.
Tottenham need players who are at the peak of their powers, and the Japanese International certainly fits the profile. He has 12 goals and four assists in all competitions this season.
It is fair to assume that the player would have been tempted to join Tottenham if the North London club decided to take up the opportunity to sign him. It would have been a major step up in his career and the opportunity to reunite with Postecoglou would have been hard to turn down.
It remains to be seen whether Tottenham can bring in the right additions before the January window closes.
