Tottenham hold talks to sign Paris St-Germain striker Goncalo Ramos
Tottenham Hotspur have opened negotiations to sign Paris St-Germain striker Goncalo Ramos as new manager Roberto De Zerbi seeks to rebuild his struggling squad.
The north London club are currently enduring a torrid Premier League campaign and sit just one point above the relegation zone.
De Zerbi has been tasked with preserving their top-flight status before overhauling the playing staff at the end of the season.
Strengthening the attack is a clear priority for the Italian coach following Dominic Solanke’s injury-hit second year at the club.
Search for regular football
Ramos arrived in the French capital from Benfica in a £60m deal during the summer of 2023.
However, the 24-year-old has consistently struggled to secure regular starting opportunities at the Parc des Princes.
The Portugal international was part of the Parisian squad that lifted the Champions League trophy last season.
Despite that European success, the former Benfica forward has instructed his representatives to find a club where he can establish himself as a primary attacker.
Looming attacking overhaul
Spurs face a significant restructuring of their forward line in the coming months.
Randal Kolo Muani is not expected to see his current loan arrangement converted into a permanent transfer.
Meanwhile, the long-term future of Brazilian forward Richarlison remains entirely unresolved.
Securing the services of the Portuguese target man could provide De Zerbi with the necessary focal point for his tactical system.
With the striker entering the final two years of his current contract, the French champions may view this summer as the optimum moment to sanction a sale.
