Tottenham Hotspur are actively seeking a reliable goalscorer, particularly in consideration of the problems Thomas Frank has been facing in recent weeks.

Spurs began the season brightly and picked up three wins from opening four Premier League games. The next four league games have seen them pick up just five points. The biggest concern for Thomas Frank’s side has been scoring goals, and getting them from the strikers and wingers.

Richarlison has been labouring in recent weeks, and Frank has had no choice but to stick with him due to Dominic Solanke undergoing a minor ankle surgery. Randal Kolo Muani has only recovered from a dead leg that kept him sidelined for almost a month. Mathys Tel has been poor up top, struggling to make an impact like Richarlison and provide his team with goals.

Thus, the north Londoners are keen to bolster their striker department when the transfer window reopens in January. Palmeiras striker Vitor Roque is the latest name to be linked with a move to Tottenham. Chelsea are interested in the player as well.
