Tottenham Hotspur fans on Twitter have been reacting to the latest news concerning reported Spurs transfer target Serhou Guirassy.
This comes after Spurs news Twitter account @TranSPURS shared a post on their page relaying news published in a report by Sky Sports, which stated that French club Amiens want €18m (£16.2 million) for Guirassy.
The report stated that Guirassy “will be sold this summer and his representatives are working hard to get him a move after Amiens were relegated when the season ended early in France in April.”
The post on Twitter also said that the striker “has ambitions of playing in the Premier League” and contained a video compilation of the striker in action that Guirassy himself shared onto his official Twitter page.
This post then gathered a lot of replies from Spurs fans who were quick to share their thoughts on this latest update.
Here’s a sample of Spurs fans responding to the post:

Anyone will do

The 24-year-old, who is currently valued at £7.2 million, made a total of 23 appearances in Ligue 1 last season where he managed to score nine goals and provide just one assist throughout the 2019/20 season (per Transfermarkt).
However, some Spurs fans responded to the post claiming that the London club should turn their attention to signing AFC Bournemouth striker Callum Wilson instead of Guirassy this summer.
Wilson should be a priority, but Guirassy would be a great backup striker

Who would you rather see Spurs sign this summer?
Serhou Guirassy
Callum Wilson
Not another player from the French League. Give us Wilson Levy

It appears that the majority of these Spurs fans would rather see their club try and sign Wilson instead of paying the reported fee for Guirassy. So, it will be interesting to see if Spurs make a move for either of the two strikers this summer.
