Tottenham begins full-fledged negotiations to recruit Jonathan David (24, Lil).

David, the Canadian national team, scored a come-from-behind goal in the 17th minute of the second half in the 3rd-4th place match against Uruguay on the 14th (Korea time). But Uruguay laughed.

Canada allowed Tottenham's Rodrigo Bentakur to score the first goal eight minutes into the game, but David scored a relay goal in the 22nd minute of the first half, turning the tide. However, Uruguay's Luis Suarez scored an equalizer just before the end of the match, bringing the game back to square one, and Uruguay won the penalty shootout 4-3.

David did his bit. He scored two goals in this tournament. He was Canada's first kicker in the shootout and made it clean.

After Copa America, David's transfer negotiations are also expected to accelerate. England's Football Insider predicted that Tottenham entered the race to recruit David and that his recruitment could be completed.

Lille of the French Ligue 1 team has allowed David to transfer. David is under contract with Lille until June 2025. It will be released as a free agent (free agent) with no transfer fee next summer.

A native of Hent Youth, Belgium, he made his professional debut in 2018 and moved to Lille in August 2020. David has scored 26 goals in all tournaments in the last two consecutive seasons at Lille and has been recognised for his goalscoring talent.

His biggest attraction after being born in the U.S. and moving to Canada is the low transfer fee as well. The transfer fee is reported to be around 25 million pounds (about 45 billion won).

It is more likely that it fits with Tottenham's chairman Daniel Levy's philosophy of recruitment. Ben Jacobs, an expert in the European transfer market, recently said that David's transfer to Tottenham was raised a year ago. But the transfer fee was too high"The situation is different now. In the meantime, I'm sure you've heard a lot about 'It's not a Levi's deal, or it's not a Levi's price'. In David's case, it's a Levi's deal, and it's a Levi's price."

'Football Insider'Do'David would be a smart choice of business' Tottenham did not blood the striker after sending Harry Kane off for Bayern Munich last summer. Son Heung-min struggled with 17 goals and 10 assists last season, but the recruitment of striker cannot be delayed any longer.

David is the top candidate in terms of ransom. David is said to be currently eyeing Manchester United and Chelsea.
