Tottenham lining up move for £86m-rated Spanish forward

Thomas Frank’s Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing FC Porto attacking sensation Samu Aghehowa.

Despite having made significant investments to bolster their attack in recent seasons, Tottenham still lack firepower in the final third. The North London club haven’t been able to address to striker issue, and they are considering signing another number nine in the near future.

According to Pete O’Rourke via Football Insider, Spurs are considering making a move for Samu Aghehowa. Thomas Frank’s team have scouted him in the past, and they could push for the signature of the 21-year-old striker, who has been doing wonders for FC Porto.

The Spanish striker has only gone from strength to strength since joining the Portuguese outfit from Atletico Madrid in the summer of 2024. His consistent performances have put him on the radar of multiple top clubs.

While speaking about Aghehowa’s future on Inside Track podcast, O’Rourke said: “I’m sure he’s [Aghehowa] somebody who’s maybe on the list of Tottenham and other clubs in the Premier League.

“Chelsea [came] very close to signing him a couple of transfer windows ago before the player decided to stay.

“Then Newcastle had him on their list in the summer window as they looked at potential replacements for Alexander Isak before signing Nick Woltemade.
