Report reveals who the front-runners are to sign Tottenham target Jonathan David
Amidst speculation continuing to link Jonathan David with a move to Tottenham Hotspur, a fresh report has shed light on which two clubs are currently at the front of the queue to land the Lille star this summer.
David has been one of the most prolific strikers across Europe over the last four seasons, with 109 goals and 30 assists in 232 appearances for Lille.
Given the dearth of top-class number nines across the continent and the fact that the 25-year-old is available on a free transfer, he is unsurprisingly set to be one of the hottest contested signings of the summer transfer window.
Several outlets have reported over recent months that Tottenham have held talks with David regarding a switch to N17, but it turns out that the Lilywhites have now fallen behind in the race for the striker.
Two Serie A clubs emerge as front-runners to sign Jonathan David
Just a couple of days ago, it was reported by Football Insider that Napoli have moved to the front of the queue to land David.
Now, a new report from The Telegraph has said that the Lille man is indeed likely to end up in Serie A, but it is not Napoli who are leading the race to land him.
The outlet states that as things stand, Inter Milan or Juventus are believed to be David’s most likely destination this summer as he gets set to leave the Stade Pierre-Mauroy.
The publication adds that the Canadian international is attracting ‘strong interest’ from the Premier League, but the names of the interested clubs are not revealed in the update.
David’s move to Juventus might work to Tottenham’s advantage
While Spurs might be disappointed if they miss out on David, his move to Juventus might open the door for the North London club to land another one of their targets.
Over recent days, it has emerged that Tottenham are ready to turn their attention to Juve striker Dusan Vlahovic, who is expected to depart the Allianz Stadium this summer.
With the Serbian striker having just one year left to run on his deal in Turin, it is asserted that he could be available for as little as £20m.
