Fernando Llorente left Tottenham Hotspur as a free agent in 2019 and Spurs have so far failed to bring in a replacement for the Spaniard.
Harry Kane has been the main recognised striker in the squad this season and the north London club have struggled in his absence, managing only five wins in this calendar year.
It’s clear that José Mourinho would want to bring in a new centre forward this summer and Napoli’s Arkadiusz Milik is viewed as a target.
This is according to Sportitalia journalist Alfredo Pedullà, as relayed by Tutto Napoli.
Pedullà claims the Premier League side are pushing ‘a lot’ for the Poland international, but Tottenham are not the only club who are after the 26-year-old. Chelsea are also there along with Juventus.
He states the Blues have asked information, but it isn’t clear if Chelsea approached the player’s camp or the Naples club.
Milik’s contract at Napoli lasts until 2021 and if he doesn’t sign an extension, the club will be forced to sell him in the summer in order to avoid losing the frontman for nothing a year later.
Tutto Napoli states the player’s future ‘remains shrouded in mystery, with several solutions that could emerge on the horizon’.
Time should tell…
