Tottenham Hotspur are going to have to make serious upgrades to their attack this summer transfer window. They have greatly improved the foundation of their squad this summer with four major signings in Marcos Senesi, Jan Paul van Hecke, Sandro Tonali, and Mateus Fernandes, but aside from Mohammed Kudus, Spurs will not have a real healthy star in their attacking starting lineup to start the 2026/27 Premier League season.
What Spurs need, above all else, is goals, and what they need secondarily is chance creation and dynamism. Right now, the only forward Spurs are in active talks for is Savinho, and it has taken a frustratingly long time for the Lilywhites to get anything going with Manchester City for a player who is clearly available at the right price.
Tottenham have been linked to a host of other forwards, too, but it seems like the other big clubs in European football are more serious about signing them.
PSG are keen on Ferran Torres, too
For example, Tottenham have been linked to Monaco's young winger Maghnes Akliouche, but PSG are increasingly in the driver's seat for him. And now, according to a report from L'Equipe's Emery Taisne, PSG and Monaco are about to finalize a transfer agreement for the right winger. The deal will reportedly be done after Akliouche returns from the 2026 World Cup, where his France are facing rivals England in the third place game.
But that is not all. In addition to losing out on Akliouche to PSG despite having the opportunity to sign him when they needed him in the winter transfer window, Spurs are about to lose out on an even better player before even showing interest.
Center forward and left winger Ferran Torres, who can play any position in the front three, is reportedly a key target for Luis Enrique and PSG at striker. PSG reportedly view Torres as the ideal replacement for Portuguese international Goncalo Ramos as the main backup No. 9.
Torres has his flaws and can be a frustrating finisher, but he is a great goal scorer on the left wing and one of the most intelligent players off the ball. He works hard for the team, links up well, understands space, and is a winner as he has been soaking up titles with Barcelona and is on the cusp of a huge trophy under his belt in the World Cup. PSG could very well take not one but two legitimate transfer targets from Tottenham Hotspur this summer.
