Tottenham warned that top target has already outgrown them, ‘He can do better’
Gabby Agbonlahor has predicted where Tottenham will finish this season and what one of the North London club’s top targets will be thinking about a switch to N17 next summer.
Some Spurs fans will be expecting the club to flex their financial muscle during the next few transfer windows after ENIC pumped £100m into Tottenham.
It has been suggested over recent weeks that Tottenham are expected to target elite signings as they strive towards success in the post-Daniel Levy era.
One of the best players in the Premier League is now reportedly in their sights, with reports indicating Spurs have moved to pole position in the race for Antoine Semenyo.
Gabby Agbonlahor makes confident Antoine Semenyo claim amid Tottenham interest
It has been suggested that some sources suggest that Bouremouth’s £80m asking price for Antoine Semenyo has not put off Tottenham and other Premier League clubs.
This does not surprise Agbonlahor, who claims that the Cherries star will walk into the starting eleven of every single side in the Premier League.
The former Aston Villa man told talkSPORT about the 25-year-old: “I look at the league table, and name me a team he doesn’t start for on that left-hand side. Name one.
“He’s better than [Man City’s Jérémy] Doku. He starts for Arsenal if [Eberechi] Eze plays in that number 10 position. [He’s] Better than [Gabriel] Martinelli and [Leandro] Trossard. Better than [Cody] Gakpo [at Liverpool]. Starts for Spurs.”
However, Tottenham fans will not like the next prediction the pundit made about Semenyo’s future.

Jamie O’Hara stated that the Lilywhites should go all guns blazing to land the Ghana international, suggesting that Tottenham is the perfect club for the winger.
However, Agbonlahor believes that Spurs will miss out on Champions League qualification for next season and will thus not be able to attract the Bournemouth star.
O’Hara said: “I’d love him at Spurs. I think they should go all out for him. When they come out and talk about an injection of £100m into Spurs. I think Spurs is an amazing club for him, a massive football club, a brilliant stadium and amazing facilities.”
Abonglahor responded: “Are Spurs big enough for him, though? Because he wants to play Champions League, and next season you won’t [be in the competition]. He can do better than Spurs.”
