Tottenham Reportedly Lead Race for Porto Striker Samu Aghehowa

Spurs are weighing a January approach to solve a shortage of reliable goals.

Overview

  • Porto are described as firm on a €100m release clause, though some reporting suggests a potential deal could be discussed closer to €90m.
  • Separate coverage indicates Spurs are preparing to target the 21-year-old in January as they assess center‑forward options under Thomas Frank.
  • Aghehowa’s appeal is fueled by production that includes 27 goals last season and nine in 15 appearances this term.
