As was the case last year, Tottenham Hotspurs players The campaign has never been known this season.

Ange Postecoglou's a side goes from looking like world champions to looking hopeless, sometimes within a week.

However, following their emphasis 5-0 Premier League After beating Southampton on Sunday, things are looking up for the Lilywhites.

In addition, their free-flowing football could be even more dangerous as recent reports have linked the club with a sensational player who could be a top signing in the summer. Dominic Solanke.

Tottenham Hotspur transfer news

According to a recent report from one Spanish storeTottenham are one of several clubs interested in Inter Milan midfielder Marcus Thuram.

Along with the Lilywhites, reports have revealed that Liverpool, Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona and Arsenal are all interested in the French midfielder.

Unfortunately for Daniel Levy and Co, the competition isn't the only obstacle to finding their man, as the report says they will spend €85m, which translates to around $70m.

It may be too expensive and hard to change to get through this line, but given Thuram's incredible potential, it's worth pursuing, especially since he could be an upgrade over Solanke.

How Thuram compares to Solanke

Now, if Spurs are successful in their pursuit of Thuram next year, it seems unlikely that he will join the club and enjoy a stint on the bench as a means of survival.

So, although he only arrived in the summer, Solanke would have direct competition with him to go to the top of the first line, but who will come out between the two?

Well, based on their clean sheet, Inter ace leads, and somewhat at that.

For example, in only 20 games this season, the Frenchman "the best" of France, as he was called by the sports director of Wolfsburg. Marcel Schäferhe has scored 12 goals and provided six assistswhich equates to a staggering 1.11 goals per game ratio.

In contrast, the former Bournemouth star has just scored seven goals and four assists in 21 appearances, which equates to a decent but underwhelming strikeout rate of 1.90.

Unfortunately for the Lilywhites' number nine, the one-sided version of this comparison also extends to the two starting numbers.

For example, the Inter star comes out on top in many important areas, such as free goals including assists, forward carries, keys to the goal area, shooting and shooting on target and goals and taking shots. all, at 90.

Ultimately, Solanke is a talented player who could have a great career at Spurs, but in almost every aspect, Thuram looks like a better upgrade.

Therefore, Levy and Co must do everything they can to bring France to North London as soon as possible.
