Maybe they got a much needed win in Europa League last night, but there's no escaping that this season has been a disaster Tottenham Hotspur.
Ange postcoglou The side may still be in three cup competitions, but in English Premier LeagueTheir appearance was nothing short of immemorial.
The North Londoners sit in 15th place, with more losses than wins to their name, now that Dominic Solanke has been appointed “About six weeks” From work, they may have to rely on unreliable and injury-prone workers Richarlison.
However, this may not be the case for very long, as recent reports have described the Premier League's start to move to N17, who will undoubtedly start before the Brazilian and perhaps send him packing.
Tottenham's jewel goal in the English Premier League
According to To a recent report from TeamTalkTottenham are “still desperate” to bring in attacking reinforcements for Postecoglou this month, and they have maintained their interest in Ipswich Town star Liam Delap.
The report claims that Lillywhites are confident they can land the young striker before London rivals, Chelsea, this month.
However, in less good news for fans, the report also claimed this Daniel Levy He does not wish to get into a bidding war for the player, and given his importance to Benin Tractor this season, Other reports from this month They revealed they would demand upwards of £40million to even entertain the idea of him leaving.
It would be an expensive transfer to get over the line, but given how well Delap has played this season and his sky-high potential, it could be worth the extravagance, especially since he's finally sent Richarlison packing.
How does Delap compare to Richarlison?
So, when he returns to full fitness, PosetCoglou will no doubt give Solanke the opportunity to reassert himself as Tottenham's striker of choice. So far this season, he has looked impressive, amassing a tally of flags. 17 Target involvement In just 29 games this season.
Therefore, if the club can get their hands on DELAP this month, they will likely play second place to the Englishman, at least for a short while, meaning his main competition in the squad will be Richarlison, and we believe that is a competition he will win quite easily.
For example, despite joining the North Londoners For about 60 million pounds sterling In the summer of 2022, the former Everton star has made just 76 appearances for the club, and what's worse is that he has only managed to score. 17 goals and nine assists In the aforementioned manifestations.
This means that across his stint with the Lilywhites, the Brazilian has averaged 2.92 goals per game, which, for someone who cost as much as he did, is not good enough.
In contrast, Ipswich's “monster” goals He was named Kieran McKennafound The back of the mesh in eight occasions in just 22 games this season and provided two assists for good measure.

This means that the 21-year-old “RAM” It is called Opta Analyzermaintains an average goal involvement every 2.2 games in his first full season of top-flight football and for a team that many predicted they would seriously struggle with.
Furthermore, the Winchester-born Sharpshooter also seems to benefit from time on his side, as at 21 years old, there is no telling how good he will be five or six years from now with the right training.
Ultimately, Spurs need to continue to overhaul their squad this month, and if they were to go out and sign Delap to replace Richarlison, it would be an exceptional feat and an excellent sign for the future of the team.
