Arsenal and Tottenham have agreed a transfer fee of £56 million for Spurs “prolific” striker Son Heung-min

Tottenham Hotspur, led by Ange Postecoglou, easily overcame Sheffield United on Sunday afternoon to wrap up their Premier League season.

Although there have been some bumps in the road, the Australian’s first season in England has gone extremely well.

However, the squad lost six of its remaining eleven games of the season, allowing 22 goals while scoring only 15.

This implies that, in addition to bolstering the defence, the attack must be overhauled before the summer,

and according to recent reports, the most recent player linked to N17 may be the best alternative to start in Son Heung-min’s position up top.

According to a Spanish newspaper, Tottenham is interested in signing RB Leipzig’s talented striker Benjamin Šeško before the summer transfer market opens.

They may be able to steal him away from Arsenal, their fierce rivals.

Chelsea is also listed in the paper as an interested party, so all three London clubs might be competing for the 20-year-old’s services.

The post does not specify a price, but over the weekend, Sky Sports Germany’s Philipp Hinze reported that

the Bundesliga club has set the forward’s release clause at €65 million for the summer, or around £56 million.

Bringing in an elite goal scorer to replace Son up front would not be a cheap move,

but it would be justified if it meant denying Chelsea and Arsenal the same opportunity.

In light of this, how do the two fare in terms of striker-relevant underlying metrics?

Unsurprisingly, given his previous expertise in the role,

the former Salzburg “machine,” as talent scout Jacek Kulig described it, easily triumphs.

He scores more non-penalty goals, takes more shots and makes more of them on target,

scores from more of his shots and makes more of them on target,

and wins a large number of aerial duels, all per ninety.

Finally, the Spurs are still a long way from being one of the best teams in the nation.

Although Son is a wonderful player, it would be sensible to sign Šeško to replace him at nine.

This would also lose Arsenal one of their primary goals.
