DONE DEAL: Spurs hijack Newcastle’s €50 million pursuit Jonathan David whom Postecoglou is ‘obsessed with’ -Fabrizio Romano confirms.
According to MSN, Tottenham Hotspur are expected to hijack Newcastle United’s pursuit of Jonathan David,
with Ange Postecoglou extremely keen on adding the Lille star to his squad.
Spurs and Newcastle want Jonathan David
It was reported by TEAMtalk last week that Newcastle had stepped up their pursuit of David as the club
look for a number nine to replace Callum Wilson, who is expected to leave St James’ Park.
It was revealed that the Magpies had identified the Canadian international as their top summer target and
were ready to push ahead with a move for the player.
David recently finished 4th at the Copa America with Canada, playing against Tottenham’s
Rodrigo Bentancur in the third-place play-off.
Spurs to enter race for Jonathan David
However, MSN have now claimed that Tottenham have no intention of allowing Newcastle
to have a free run at David and will try to hijack the move.
The outlet explains that Postecoglou is ‘obsessed’ with the idea of signing a top-class centre-forward and
has identified David as someone who fits the bill.
It is revealed that the 24-year-old is a particularly lucrative target for Spurs since he is available for just £25m,
which would mean that the club have enough funds to reinforce other areas of their squad this summer.
