Tottenham ‘firmly in the hunt’ for £40m Premier League striker, but it’s a 10-horse race
Tottenham Hotspur have expressed a strong interest in a 25-year-old Premier League striker who is ready for a new challenge this month.
While Dominic Solanke is back fit for Tottenham, Spurs have lost Richarlison to a long-term injury, and Randal Kolo Muani has continued to struggle in front of goal.
This has reportedly forced the Lilywhites to scour the market for another number nine, and one Premier League star has caught their interest.
It emerged earlier this month that Spurs are eyeing a move for Wolves striker Jorgen Strand Larsen, and it now appears that the competition for his services has intensified.
Tottenham are one of 10 clubs keen on landing Jorgen Strand Larsen
The Norway international scored 14 goals and provided four assists in what was his debut Premier League season in 2024-25, but he has only scored once in 20 outings for a struggling Wolves side this term.
However, this has not deterred Tottenham, with TEAMtalk now reporting that Spurs are ‘firmly in the hunt’ for Larsen.
They are not alone, with Nottingham Forest, Leeds United and Crystal Palace expressing an interest, and with Daniel Farke’s side even making contact over a deal through intermediaries.
Additionally, Italian and German clubs have also entered the race for the 25-year-old, with a total of 10 clubs expressing either formal or informal interest in the player this month.
Crucially, it is revealed that Larsen is ready to exit the Molineux Stadium this month in search of a new challenge.
Wolves name their asking price for Spurs target Larsen
TEAMtalk reveal that Wolves were determined not to sell the centre-forward last summer, even rejecting a £55m offer from Newcastle for the player.
However, with the Midlands side now looking destined for relegation, they are keen to trim their wage bill and cash in on Larsen before the end of the month.
It is asserted that an offer of £40m would be enough to price the former Celta Vigo man from the Molineux this window.
