Tottenham Hotspur are certain to add a striker to their squad during the upcoming transfer windows.

Roberto De Zerbi wanted to sign another frontman during the summer, but a combination of FFP factors and Richarlison’s failed departure foiled their plans.

Dom Solanke has failed to deliver this season, and the England international could do well with another player to provide cover and competition.

And now, if reports from TEAMtalk are to be believed, Espanyol striker Roberto Fernandez has emerged as their top target for 2027.

Tottenham are really interested in signing the 24-year-old, having scouted him extensively over the past few months.

Fernandez has led the line to good effect for Espanyol and recently got a call-up to Luis de la Fuente’s Spain squad.

An excerpt from the article reads: “After carrying out detailed work on Fernandez in recent months, sources understand they have been hugely impressed by what they have seen, with the 24-year-old now firmly established right at the top of their list of attacking targets.

“The Espanyol frontman first came to Tottenham’s attention last season when he scored seven goals for the Barcelona-based outfit.”

The report mentions that despite Tottenham making him their top target, the likes of Chelsea and Brighton remain in the race for him, making this a transfer saga worth keeping an eye on.
