Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Fiorentina forward Dusan Vlahovic, according to the Daily Express.
Antonio Conte will need to have a transfer plan when it comes to Spurs’ forwards, especially after last summer when Harry Kane tried but failed to force a move to Manchester City.
If the potential of Tottenham losing their best striker wasn’t enough, the goals have dried up this season, with Kane only managing one Premier League goal in his 13 outings so far in the current campaign after scoring 17 or more in each of the last seven top-flight seasons. Such a drop-off will surely force Conte to consider dipping his toes into the transfer waters.
Will Spurs sign Vlahovic in January?
Yes
No

While Kane has been struggling, Vlahovic recently became top scorer in Serie A after becoming just the third player in 60 years to score 30 Serie A goals in a single calendar year.
That is the sort of return you would dream of as a manager, so if the move is available and affordable, it would be a surprise not to see Spurs going all-in for him, especially if Kane is still seeking to move on.
Vlahovic is already averaging over one goal involvement per game this season for Fiorentina, proving just how prolific he is in and around the box. He has played 18 times in all competitions this season, bagging 17 goals while setting up another three (Transfermarkt).
Considering that Spurs as a team have scored just 16 Premier League goals this term, surely Fabio Paratici must do everything possible to try and persuade the 21-year-old to swap Florence for N17.
