Spurs eye Madrid star + deal there to be done for France int’l striker with 42 PL goals in last 3 terms

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keeping tabs on Real Madrid attacker Endrick, while Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta also features on their radar.

In addition, Spurs have an opening to pursue AS Monaco forward Folarin Balogun and Villarreal attacker Georges Mikautadze.

Balogun has been offered to the north London club by his representatives, though it remains uncertain whether Tottenham intend to follow up on the proposal.

Endrick, meanwhile, has been mentioned as a loan target for Aston Villa, but looks set to stay at Real Madrid for the upcoming season, with new boss José Mourinho eager to retain his services.

Mateta presents another potential option for Spurs, and the Frenchman is believed to be open to leaving Selhurst Park. The 29-year-old featured three times for France at the World Cup and has netted 42 Premier League goals across the last three campaigns, finishing this past season with 16 strikes and three assists in 50 appearances across all competitions.

With Dominic Solanke currently managing fitness issues, manager Roberto De Zerbi is in need of reliable attacking reinforcements to strengthen his side’s push for a top-five Premier League finish.

Solanke experienced ankle discomfort last week and was omitted from Saturday’s friendly against Getafe as a precaution. His previous campaign was heavily disrupted—he managed only 15 league outings after an August injury sidelined him until January. He also sustained a hamstring problem against Wolverhampton Wanderers in April, only returning during pre-season, underlining Spurs’ need for both quality cover and healthy competition up front.
