da supremo: With Christmas nearly upon us, attentions in the Premier League are inevitably being turned to the January transfer window – a chance for every club to boost their squad for the second half of the campaign.
da jogodeouro: And looking at Tottenham Hotspur’s, perhaps the most notable absence is a wide forward who can stretch defences with width and pace, preferably one who knows how to take on a man too. Mauricio Pochettino’s side are just ninth in the Premier League’s dribbles table this season.
With that in mind, we recently asked Spurs fans which wide forward they’d like to see their club sign in January – Watford’s summer signing Richarlison, who now boasts five goals and four assists in the top flight, or Crystal Palace’s talismanic attacker Wilfried Zaha.
Our poll revealed that although opinions are incredibly split, 55% of Tottenham fans would like their club to sign Zaha in the new year. Transfermarkt value him at just £16.2million but considering how instrumental he’s become to the Eagles’ Premier League status, they’ll likely demand far more to lose the Ivory Coast international mid-season.
