Tottenham Hotspur Chairman Daniel Levy's eyes were on the young striker in La Liga. Compared to its excellent ability, it is younger and, above all, has the advantage of low recruitment costs. He is the type of player that chairman Levi and Tottenham management like. This is Harvey Poiado (26) of Spain's Primera Liga's RCD Espanyol.
British soccer media TBR Football reported on the 10th (Korea time) 'Tottenham is planning to recruit a La Liga forward with the highest score in its club history'
Tottenham were quite active in the transfer window last summer. Tottenham's recruitment has characteristics. It is that it swept away talented young players at a low price. Starting with Lucas Beribal (18), who was recruited in January and joined from summer, Archie Gray (18), Wilson O'Donbert (20), and Yang Min-hyuk (18), who were recruited in summer, are representative.
Of course, he also succeeded in recruiting front-line strikers to use as key forces. Dominic Solanke (27) is also brought in and is making full use of it at the beginning of the season. Solanke is slowly increasing his team's contribution with two goals and one assist in the first five games of the season.
Amid this situation, reports have emerged that Tottenham is interested in recruiting a new striker in the January transfer market. There have already been reports that it has been linked to Bournemouth winger Antoine Semeno and FC Mitwillan's Chile-based striker Dario Osorio. However, there was a player who Tottenham wanted to recruit more actively than them. It is Espanyol's flagship striker Poiado.
TBR Football quoted Football Transfer's report that Tottenham Scouts discovered Poido's presence while observing the match between Espanyol and Real Vallecano in September. Originally, Tottenham scouts were observing Alejo Bellis. But Poido drew more attention.

In particular, Poido has the most points ever scored at RCDEs Spainol Stadium, the home of Espanyol. In short, he is a player who is growing early as a legend of Espanyol.
In addition to this skill, Tottenham's interest in Poido is a relatively low ransom. Since the contract expires next summer, there is an opportunity to recruit at a lower transfer fee than other competitors in the January transfer market.
According to Transfermarkt, which evaluates player value, the current market value of Poido is valued at 8 million euros (about 11.8 billion won). This is also a very attractive figure for Tottenham. Chairman Levi, who pursues the 'cost-effectiveness', deserves to show an active willingness to recruit. Attention is focusing on whether Tottenham will recruit a new Spanish striker.
