Paul Robinson thinks £25m forward would ‘flourish’ at Tottenham
Paul Robinson has urged Tottenham to complete a deal for Youssef En-Nesyri, predicting that the Sevilla star would score plenty of goals for Ange Postecoglou’s side.
Tottenham are interested in Youssef En-Nesyri
En-Nesyri has emerged as one of the most prolific marksmen in La Liga over the last two seasons, with the striker netting 20 goals across all competitions in 2023-24.
A whole host of outlets have reported over recent weeks that Sevilla are ready to cash in on the 27-year-old and that Tottenham are circling over him.
This includes an update by Diario de Sevilla, which suggested that Sevilla want a quick sale of En-Nesyri due to their current financial situation and are hoping to get around €30m (£25.5m) for the striker.
The report explained that Spurs and West Ham had both expressed an interest in the Moroccan international but neither club had made an offer for the player.
Would En-Nesyri be a good fit at Tottenham?
Robinson believes that the Sevilla star has the attributes to thrive in the Premier League, insisting that he is the kind of player that the Lilywhites need.
When asked about Tottenham’s interest in En-Nesyri, the former Spurs goalkeeper told Tottenham News: “He’s a good player; I like him. He’s played at the top level, scored goals, and proven himself at the international level and in La Liga.
“He’s led the line well for Sevilla and plays the way that Ange Postecoglou wants to play—on the front foot and with hard yards.
“He’ll flourish in the Premier League. It’s the type of league that he will enjoy; he’ll score goals, and he’s a player that I like.
“He makes very good runs, he’s intelligent, and he’s of an age now where he’s scoring goals regularly and has proven himself at the top level.”
Spurs Web Opinion
En-Nesyri is a decent option and perhaps a player who will add something different to the Tottenham squad.
However, if Spurs are to offload Richarlison, they would need to ideally replace him with a top-class number nine who can guarantee 20-plus goals a year and En-Nesyri is not quite at that level.
