British media 'Football Insider' reported on the 19th (Korea time) 'It has been confirmed that Tottenham is in contact every day to recruit David'
Football Insider said 'Leal's chairman Olivier Letang admitted David was likely to leave the team this summer. There is only one year left on the contract. Lille said he would be happy to let David go for 25 million pounds (about 45 billion won).
Football Insider says 'Tottenham sees David as the perfect number nine. Hishalisson scored only 11 goals last season. Postecoglou is reportedly obsessed with the new No. 9 striker'
Tottenham does not have a professional goal scorer.
In the summer of 2023, it sold its flagship striker Harry Kane to Bayern Munich. Since then, he has not recruited a striker to replace Kane. Believed in Brazilian forward Hishalisson, acquired from Everton in 2022.
He scored only one goal in the 2022-2023 season in the Premier League, but he increased his presence by scoring 11 goals in the 2023-2024 season. Still, it was not enough to fill Kane's vacancy.
Rather, Son Heung-min, a flanker, often plays as a one-top striker. Son Heung-min scored the most points in the team with 17 goals and 10 assists in the 2023-2024 season. Hishalisson was involved in the Saudi Arabian transfer scandal.
Tottenham must recruit No. 9 striker through this summer's transfer market. With Ivan Toney (Brentford) and Santiago Jimenez (Feyenoord) constantly mentioned, David has become the leading candidate.

When Lille recruited David, the transfer fee paid was about 22 million pounds (40 billion won). According to Transfermarkt, David's ransom soared to 42 million pounds (about 75 billion won) this summer.
However, as David is soon released as a free agent, the actual transfer fee market seems to have fallen further.
Another striker Tony's ransom, which Tottenham is paying attention to, is also falling. Brentford and Tony's contract is also a year away. However, the team that wanted to recruit Tony stepped out one by one.
The British press 'The Sun' reported on the 19th (Korea time) that Brentford is ready to cut the transfer fee with only two teams left wanting Tony in the transfer market.
The Sun added 'Brentford is ready to cut Tony's transfer fee by more than 30 million pounds (about 54 billion won). Tony's transfer fee will be reduced to less than 50 million pounds (about 90 billion won)."
