Spurs fans have been reacting to a transfer rumour linking them with a move for Napoli striker Arkadiusz Milik.
According to Italian journalist Nico Schira (via Ricky Sacks), Spurs remain interested in signing the Polish international this summer, with Jose Mourinho seemingly keen on the chance to sign the Napoli man. So far this season, the 26-year-old has averaged an impressive 7.11 rating for his performances in Serie A, having contributed nine goals in just 16 appearances.
Spurs have spent much of this season without a senior striker after Harry Kane tore his hamstring early in January and the Polish international could well prove to be an excellent back-up or striker partner to the England captain next season. The former Ajax man is currently valued at £36 million by transfermarkt, but if Schira’s suggestion that he could leave the Italian side is accurate, then perhaps Spurs could bring him in on a cut-price deal.
Would Milik be a good signing for Spurs?
Yes

These Spurs fans clearly seem to think that Milik would be a good signing, but some are perhaps concerned about his injury record.
What do we think?
Milik suffered two serious injuries in the 2016/17 and 2017/18 season, which suggests that he could be a potentially unreliable back-up option to Kane. However, his goal record so far this season certainly suggests that he knows where the net is.
