Spurs are busy securing defensive targets but must turn their attention to attack sooner rather than later.
The North Londoners rely too heavily on star striker Harry Kane upfront and they do not have anyone else in the strike-force with the quality to support him or be a backup striker in his absence.
Former Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has also stressed on the fact that Pochettino must sign a new forward this summer. Harry claimed:
“The right thing is to build the team around Kane, it would help him to be the leader, too.”
“But obviously, they need another striker. They simply can’t rely on Harry alone and Roberto Soldado hasn’t really done it in his time at the club”
In such a scenario, the key player targeted by Tottenham is Monaco’s Anthony Martial. According to reports, the 19 year old French international is set to follow Kondogbia and leave Monaco this summer. Martial is a versatile star who has played as a central forward as well as in attacking midfield for the Ligue 1 side, exactly the kind of player Spurs need.
Martial has been impressive for Monaco at that young age and earned first team place. In the last campaign, Anthony played 48 times for Monaco, scored 12 goals and also provided 5 assists.
As per the provided link, an offer around €26.7m will be accepted by Monaco. Should Spurs splash the cash and secure him?

All of the prices for the players you mentioned were no where near what they should be. Firstly, Daniel Levy is incredible at getting high prices for players, but if he manages to get rid of Adebayor for anything other than £0, i will be very shocked. Secondly, Kyle Walker is not worth £20 million, £10 million, or barely £5 million. He is too injury prone for that kind of money to be spent. Also, we dont need Clyne as i think Trippier is going to be a vary good signing for us as he allows more width down the right and also has the crossing ability to give Harry Kane, And also Soldado if he stays (hopefully) some decent changes to get a goal. I struggle to see us buying Martial unles we can manage to get him for £18 million at most. Levy stated that he didn’t want us to spend high money on players and it targeting players for around £10 – £15 million mark. Chiriches is NOT work £9 million and Kaboul is getting on so is probably worth around £3.5 – £4 million. We Should never consider selling a player to any team we consider a rival, or a contender for a spot we are aiming for. Therefor, we shouldn’t sell Dembele to Chelsea. Paulinho isn’t worth £12 million and Capoue isn’t worth £8 million.
