Spurs sign £19 million “future Ballon d’Or winner”

Fans and players may hold the Europa League finals that they look forward to next week, but the strength at Tottenham Hotspur has passed and they are looking at the upcoming transfer window.

Daniel Levy and Co need to make sure this is a big window this year. Otherwise, Ange Postecoglou (or someone who will replace him) could have found himself in the same place next season.

Fortunately, over the past few weeks, there have been an increasing number of reports connecting North Londoners with extremely exciting players.

However, the talented attacker, which is being promoted for his move to the N17, should excite fans, can also spell out some troubles about the club’s current stars, such as Bayern Munich’s Lorn Massie Tell.

Tottenham Transfer News

Before you reach the player in question, it’s worth looking into some of the other exciting attackers that have linked Spurs over the past few weeks, such as Eberechi Eze and Liam Delap.

The former reportedly could cost North Londoners a cool £68m, but given his ability to play in many positions, it would be difficult to argue about that rating given the fact that he has 12 goals and 11 assists in 40 games this season.

Similarly, Delap is still young and relatively inexperienced, but his £30 million release clause seems fair for the striker who has scored 12 goals and provided two assists in 35 Premier League games this season.

But if the player comes in and sends a call back to Bayern, they have to be someone special, like Rayan Cherki.

Yes, according to a recent report from Cated Offside, Spurs is one of several aspects that are very interested in Lyon Gem.

The report reveals that players’ agents have approached many “top Premier League clubs” over potential transfers, and according to a report earlier this week, North Londoners have already asked about players that could be used for £19 million.

It could be a complicated move to get past the line, but given Cherki’s immeasurable abilities, it’s worth fighting for, even if it could be bad news for the phone.

How Cherki compares to Tel

So the first thing to say is that Cherki can play on the right of the front three and attack the midfield, but with James Madison and Dejan Crucevsky getting the former and Brennan Johnson getting the sack of goals for the latter, the French are thinking of playing from the left for the Spurs.

Therefore, upon his arrival in the summer, we were able to see the club thanking him for his service and returning to Bayern in the summer. Comparing the two players, it is clear that Lyon Ace is a much more dangerous and effective attacker.

For example, in terms of pure output, the “unusual” 21-year-old, dubbed by U23 scout Antonio Mango, scored 12 goals and provided 19 assists in 43 matches in a total of 3,009 minutes.

In contrast, since moving to North London, the Salcell-born Jewel has scored three goals and provided one assist in 18 appearances in a total of 1083 minutes.

Unfortunately for Bavarian lenders, the incredibly one-sided nature of this comparison continues even as we look under the numbers that underlie them.

For example, virtually all relevant metrics will be Lyon’s “future Ballon d’Or winner,” dubbed by Athletic’s Alex Barker, at the top.

These metrics include assists such as expected or actual non-comprehensive goals, progressive passes and carry, pass accuracy, key passes, passes to the final third and penalty area, actions to create shots and goals, successful take-ons, and take-ons around 90.

Ultimately, it’s clear that Cherki is a much better player than Tel, and while it would be convenient for the Spurs to have both for next season, it’s not surprising that signing the former would force the latter.
