Spurs ready to pay £65m for Dominic Solanke aa discussion continue with Bournemouth – This was confirmed by Fabrizio Romano

Tottenham Hotspur are pushing to get a deal done for Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke, with talks underway with the Cherries, according to Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.

The 26-year-old has given the green light to Spurs, with negotiations ongoing to find an agreement between both clubs.

Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou wants to bolster his attacking ranks after watching his side miss out on a top-four finish last term.

Solanke, who bagged 21 goals in 42 games across all competitions has emerged as a serious target, but whether Spurs are willing to activate his £65 million release clause remains to be seen.

The North London club have yet to replace Harry Kane after the England international striker left for Bayern Munich last summer, with Son Heung-Min and Richarlison featuring as their number 9 last term.

The South Korean ended 2023-24 with 17 league goals and ten assists, while his Brazilian counterpart scored 11 goals and assisted another four in 28 league appearances.
