According to reports, Tottenham Hotspur head coach has \u2018decided\u2019 that he \u2018doesn\u2019t fancy\u2019 Dominic Solanke as the club have turned to a replacement.<\/p>\n
Solanke joined Spurs during Ange Postecoglou\u2019s spell in charge as he bolstered their attack following Harry Kane\u2019s move to Bayern Munich.<\/p>\n
The 28-year-old enjoyed a strong debut season at Tottenham<\/strong> <\/a>as he grabbed 16 goals and eight assists in all competitions, but he has dropped in the pecking order following the arrival of Frank<\/strong> <\/a>in the summer.<\/p>\n Solanke was behind Richarlison in the pecking order at the start of this campaign and he has been out with an ankle injury in recent weeks.<\/p>\n Spurs also have Randal Kolo Muani and Mathys Tel to choose from, while Richarlison and Micky van de Ven currently sit as their joint-top scorers this season with three goals apiece.<\/p>\n READ:\u00a0Spurs prove that one player will make incredible Premier League history this season<\/a> Solanke is likely to face an uphill fight to get back into Tottenham\u2019s starting XI when he returns to full fitness as a report from Football Insider claims<\/a> Frank \u2018doesn\u2019t fancy\u2019 the forward.<\/p>\n Frank is said to have been \u2018unimpressed\u2019 by Solanke this season and has \u2018decided\u2019 that he wants Spurs to sign a new striker in January.<\/p>\n However, the report has explained why he may have to settle with his current options for the rest of this campaign.<\/p>\n The report claims:<\/p>\n \u2018Sources say that in an ideal world, Tottenham would bring in a striker when the window reopens, but it is notoriously difficult to do business in January.<\/p>\n \u2018Therefore, the more likely scenario is that Frank will have to utilise his current squad, rather than relying on additions.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n MORE SPURS COVERAGE ON F365\u2026 Despite this, a report from Caught Offside claims Spurs have opted to turn to Porto standout Samu Aghehowa, who has a 100 million euro (\u00a386m) release clause in his contract, as a possible replacement.<\/p>\n Spurs are said to face competition from Arsenal, Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest for his services, though Frank\u2019s side are said to be the \u2018most interested\u2019 club.<\/p>\n It is also suggested that the striker could be available for a fee below his release clause.<\/p>\n The report claims:<\/p>\n \u2018Porto fully own the player\u2019s rights and have placed a \u20ac100 million release clause in his contract. The Portuguese giants are adamant they will not negotiate below that figure. However, sources close to the club suggest that financial pressures could soften their stance if a substantial bid is presented.<\/p>\n \u2018Spurs have discussed the possibility of an initial short-term deal with an option to buy, though Porto\u2019s firm valuation remains a major obstacle.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"According to reports, Tottenham Hotspur head coach has \u2018decided\u2019 that he \u2018doesn\u2019t fancy\u2019 Dominic Solanke as the club…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":147853,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[9,10,3208,18,13,14,6,794,19,17,11,12,15,16,5,795,87126,3612,7,8,3613],"class_list":{"0":"post-147852","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-breaking-news","9":"tag-breakingnews","10":"tag-dominic-solanke","11":"tag-eire","12":"tag-featured-news","13":"tag-featurednews","14":"tag-headlines","15":"tag-home-page","16":"tag-ie","17":"tag-ireland","18":"tag-latest-news","19":"tag-latestnews","20":"tag-main-news","21":"tag-mainnews","22":"tag-news","23":"tag-premier-league","24":"tag-samu-omorodion","25":"tag-thomas-frank","26":"tag-top-stories","27":"tag-topstories","28":"tag-tottenham-hotspur"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/115446424928822999","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/147852","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=147852"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/147852\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/147853"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=147852"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=147852"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=147852"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
