Report: Tottenham now ready for talks with £44m Premier League striker's agent, he's Postecoglou's 'key target'

Tottenham Hotspur need help in the January transfer window.

Spurs have had a really poor start to the season. They are currently 10th in the Premier League table and have won just one of their last six games in all competitions.

That is a really poor record, and it is clear as day that fans are far from happy with the performances of Ange Postecoglou and his men.

The January transfer window is not too far away now, and Spurs should dive into the market to bring one or two top players in.

Tottenham’s plan to sign Matheus Cunha from Wolves

Matheus Cunha has had a fantastic start to the new season.

The Brazilian has scored seven goals and provided three assists for Wolves in 14 Premier League appearances so far.

That is a very impressive return, especially considering that the Wanderers haven’t had a great season at all – they are currently 19th and are at risk of going down.

Cunha’s performances have impressed many big clubs, including Tottenham. Football Transfers have now shared the latest on the situation.

As TBR Football exclusively revealed in November, the report says that Wolves and their manager Gary O’Neil are absolutely adamant that Cunha will not be going anywhere in January, but Spurs are not backing away.

It has been revealed that Tottenham have made Cunha their ‘key target’ and are determined to get him once the January transfer window opens.

Spurs’ plan now is to ‘engage with the Brazilian striker’s representatives’ to signal their interest in signing their client next month.

Wolves initially brought in Cunha on loan from Atletico Madrid in a deal that obligated them to sign him permanently for £44 million in the summer of 2022 (Guardian).

If Tottenham really want him, they will likely have to pay more than that figure in the winter window.

What Ange Postecoglou has said about signing a new striker in 2025

Tottenham decided against signing a replacement for Harry Kane when they sold him in 2023, and they only brought in Dominic Solanke in this summer’s transfer window.

Richarlison is still at the club, but injuries have really troubled the Brazilian, and he just hasn’t been able to be available consistently.

That is why Tottenham are being urged to sign a new striker in 2025, and Postecoglou has all but confirmed that he is planning to do just that.

The Spurs boss said recently, as per Football London: “There’s no doubt we need some bolstering in that front third over the next couple of transfer windows.

“Dom coming in has been great, but again we can’t overload him either, because ultimately, you know, even if he stays fit and nothing happens, performance will invariably drop if his energy levels drop.

“So it’s something we’re aware of and need to plan for.”
