Tottenham Hotspur are showing more intent in their pursuit of Alejandro Garnacho and are tempted to head to Manchester United with a formal offer as head coach Thomas Frank continues aiming to bolster his attacking options ahead of his first season at the Hotspur Way helm, GIVEMESPORT sources have revealed.
Spurs have already shown a willingness to splash the cash on fresh creativity and firepower since the transfer window reopened, with Mohammed Kudus completing a £55million switch from West Ham United earlier this month, but there remains a desire to bring in further reinforcements.
Although a move for Morgan Gibbs-White has been delayed, after Nottingham Forest threatened Tottenham and the attacking midfielder’s agent with legal action due to concerns that there had been an illegal approach as well as a breach of confidentiality, Frank has been weighing up whether to swoop for Garnacho.
Spurs Increasing Intent in Chase for Garnacho
North Londoners may take advantage of forward’s reduced price tag
Tottenham are becoming more serious in their push to sign Garnacho, according to GMS sources, after Frank and influential figures behind the scenes have been left intrigued by his value and determination to prove his worth after falling out of favour under Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim.
Spurs have seen the wide forward’s price tag slashed to £40million in the last 24 hours, highlighting his current employers’ determination to get him off their books ahead of the September 1 transfer deadline, and the north Londoners are continuing to monitor his situation at Old Trafford.
GMS sources have been informed that Tottenham have real interest in Garnacho, who enjoyed a productive 2024/25 campaign in the final third of the pitch, but they are facing stiff competition as Premier League counterparts Chelsea and Aston Villa have been in talks with Manchester United over a potential deal.
Red Devils tactician Amorim has made it clear to the Argentina international that he needs to head through the exit door and will not feature at the forefront of his plans in the upcoming season, resulting in Spurs and other admirers being put on red alert as they seek to upgrade their respective squads.
Tottenham have upped the ante in their pursuit of Garnacho this week, GMS sources have learned, but Frank and members of the recruitment department have not made a final decision on whether to table a formal proposal in an attempt to hand him a fresh challenge away from Manchester United.
