Tottenham Hotspur could make a surprise move for Mauro Icardi, with Roberto De Zerbi reportedly keen on bringing the experienced striker to North London.
The Argentine forward remains available as a free agent after leaving Galatasaray, and his availability could make him an appealing short-term option for Spurs. De Zerbi is reportedly looking for solutions to his side’s lack of goals, with Tottenham struggling to find consistency in the final third.
Mauro Icardi attracts Tottenham interest
According to reports from Spain, De Zerbi has identified Icardi as a potential solution to Tottenham’s attacking problems. The 33-year-old has built a reputation as a natural goalscorer during an impressive career that has included spells with Inter Milan, Paris Saint-Germain and Galatasaray.
Icardi may no longer be at the peak of his powers, but his finishing ability could still make him a useful addition to the Tottenham squad. He scored 16 goals for Galatasaray across all competitions last season, including 14 in the Turkish Super Lig.
Spurs have had a difficult start in front of goal, with their attackers struggling to find the net consistently. That could encourage the club to explore an experienced option outside the traditional transfer window.
