Tottenham Hotspur need reinforcements
Injury-plagued Tottenham Hotspur are in need of more signings this January. They have started in strong fashion, signing goalkeeper Antoni Kinski from Slavia Prague for £12.5m, with the Czech goalkeeper having maintained his form in his first two games for Tottenham. Two clean sheets.
However, there are still gaps in the lineup. Centre-back remains a concern after injuries to Christian Romero and Mickey van de Veen, although Archie Gray’s performance has gone some way to easing those concerns.
Elsewhere, there are problems with attacks. Although they have the second-highest number of goals scored in the Premier League so far this season, some of their forwards are still underperforming. Timo Werner is yet to score this season, while Heung Min Sun has only scored five top-flight goals, a poor performance compared to his usual high standards.

Long-term injuries to Richarlison and Wilson Odobert have also softened Spurs’ attack, forcing Dejan Kulusevski to play out wide more than Postkoglu seemed to want. More, and his long-term future is likely to be in the center of midfield.
With that in mind, a new striker seemed to be needed for the second half of the season and now Spurs appear to be trying to bring one in.
