According to Tottenham insider Paul O’Keefe, it would take a huge bid if Tottenham Hotspur had any intention of looking to prise Dominic Solanke away from Bournemouth this summer.

Tottenham are yet to replace Harry Kane

Several outlets have reported over the course of the summer that Tottenham are keen on adding a marquee number nine to their squad and that Solanke is one of the names on their wishlist (Football Insider).

The 26-year-old enjoyed a breakthrough season at the Vitality Stadium last term, scoring 21 goals and providing four assists across all competitions.

Tottenham’s interest in the centre-forward was backed up GiveMeSport, who stated last month that Ange Postecoglou was a fan of the Englishman and that the club’s hierarchy had identified him as the man to fill the void left by Harry Kane.

However, the publication explained that Bournemouth want their star man’s £65m release clause to be paid to let him go and this fee is considered ‘too high’ by the North London club.

Solanke would be an expensive signing for Tottenham

O’Keefe has now stated something quite similar, revealing that the Cherries want a mammoth fee for Solanke.

Spurs Web Opinion

The Solanke rumours have died down over the last month, which suggests that Tottenham have withdrawn from the race, possibly after hearing Bournemouth’s stance.

Solanke has had just one decent season at the highest level and he would need to replicate the same form over another campaign to justify a hefty price tag.

Feyenoord’s Santiago Gimenez is another player who no longer appears to be of interest to Spurs. At this point, Jonathan David seems to be the striker most likely to come through the door this summer.
