what they have to do to land Feyenoord\u2019s prolific 25-goal striker this summer.<\/p>\n<p>Spurs Web believes that <a

target=\"_blank\">Tottenham Hotspur could improve five areas of their squad<\/a> in the summer transfer window, including the forward position.<\/p>\n<p>Thus far this season, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spurs-web.com\/tottenham-hotspur-fan-articles\/richarlison-joins-liverpool-legend-after-equalling-record-but-he-has-his-eye-on-another-for-tottenham\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Spurs\u2019 leading goalscorer is Richarlison<\/a>, who has managed 10 goals in the Premier League, which is far from ideal for a club supposed to be competing among the best in the division.<\/p>\n<p>Even more worryingly, aside from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spurs-web.com\/tag\/richarlison\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Richarlison<\/a>, no other Spurs player has managed double figures for league goals this campaign \u2013 but the club now appear to be looking to address exactly that issue.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\"

\/>Photo by ANP via Getty ImagesTottenham target Ayase Ueda after prolific Feyenoord season<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/ayase-ueda-feyenoord-to-accept-big-offer-as-leeds-ready-swoop-for-free-scoring-striker\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Football Insider<\/a>, Ayase Ueda of Feyenoord is a striker now on the radar of Tottenham Hotspur.<\/p>\n<p>The Japanese international has managed 25 goals from 30 league appearances in the Eredivisie this season and is on course to win the Golden Boot in the Netherlands.<\/p>\n<p>Spurs are no strangers to having elite goalscorers leading the line after enjoying several years of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spurs-web.com\/tag\/harry-kane\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Harry Kane<\/a> spearheading the attack \u2013 a player who won Golden Boots himself and one they have yet to properly replace.<\/p>\n<p>However, Tottenham will not have a free run at the centre-forward, with interest also arriving from Premier League sides including Leeds United and Everton.<\/p>\n<p>Football Insider also revealed that, although the Dutch side is extremely reluctant to lose their free-scoring forward, they would be willing to consider a sale if a \u201cbig offer\u201d arrives ahead of next season.<\/p>\n<p>Ueda is said to be a key target for Leeds United, who are reported to be very keen on adding him to their frontline this summer.<\/p>\n<p>Spurs could turn to Troy Parrott as an alternative<\/p>\n<p>Spurs Web has since reported that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spurs-web.com\/spurs-news\/tottenham-conduct-checks-on-6-9m-striker-with-25-goals-in-29-games-this-season\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tottenham have carried out plenty of checks on Ueda<\/a> ahead of the summer window, and they are fully aware of the competition they face.<\/p>\n<p>We also relayed the comments of Feyenoord boss <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spurs-web.com\/spurs-news\/robin-van-persie-wants-to-see-tottenham-fail-with-25-goal-striker-pursuit\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Robin van Persie, who wants to see Spurs fail in their attempts to sign the 27-year-old<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, should Tottenham miss out on Ueda, they could also turn their attention towards another player from the Eredivisie who has impressed this season.<\/p>\n<p>Troy Parrott, while not matching the Japan international\u2019s tally, has still managed 10 fewer league goals than Ueda this season.<\/p>\n<p>Spurs Web also recently revealed that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spurs-web.com\/spurs-news\/troy-parrott-just-won-the-knvb-cup-but-he-would-be-keen-on-discount-tottenham-return\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"
