Report: Tottenham Hotspur want Metz striker Habib Diallo

According to The Athletic’s Charlie Eccleshare, Metz striker Habib Diallo is a target for Tottenham Hotspur this summer as they look to land a cover for England international Harry Kane. Spurs failed to bring in a replacement for Fernando Llorente last summer, and injuries to Kane and Hueng-min Son during the second-half of 2019-20 proved costly. Metz want to sell Diallo this summer for between £14 million and £19 million, and the striker is also open to the move. The 25-year-old ended last season with 12 goals and three assists in 25 league appearances and will be keen to prove himself in the Premier League.
