da casino： If there’s one gap remaining in what has steadily developed into a well-rounded Tottenham squad, it’s surely in the wide attacking positions. Sure, the Lilywhites have a vast collection of wing-backs and players like Christian Eriksen and Heung-min Son who can make a difference from the flanks, but none are wingers in the traditional sense – capable of stretching defences with natural speed and width.
da betsul： That perhaps explains why a number of sources this season, including London Evening Standard last month, have claimed Spurs are interested in signing Watford’s Richarlison. Transfermarkt may rate the Brazilian at just £6.3million but he’s enjoyed an explosive start to his Premier League career, notching up five goals and four assists in 17 appearances.
However, he isn’t the only wide forward impressing in the Premier League this season. Wilfried Zaha, no stranger to Tottenham’s rumour columns, is enjoying another fine campaign as well – the Ivory Coast international’s three goals proving vital to Crystal Palace’s survival bid.
