Tottenham Hotspur are looking to strengthen this summer and they have many targets. One they are now quite interested in is Gift Orban.

It is a weird summer for Tottenham. There is definitely excitement with new manager Ange Postecoglou coming in and top players being bought, but they had a very poor campaign last season.

James Maddison has been a solid addition and with Spurs not in Europe next season, they will be expected to be back in a top European qualification spot.

Now, the Transfer Confidential report by The Daily Mail reported on Spurs’ interest in Orban. The report said: “Gift Orban of Gent is another thought to be under consideration”. They are currently assessing attacking options this summer.

Tottenham tempted to move for Gift Orban

The ‘incredible’ 21-year-old is highly-rated and haas attracted a lot of interest. Chelsea, Manchester United and Fulham have all been linked.

Despite his age, he is already making history as he broke a record last season. The record was one held by Mohamed Salah.

In March, Orban managed to score a first-half hat-trick in the UEFA Europa Conference League. He managed to score the three goals in three minutes and 25 seconds.

This set a new record for the fastest hat-trick in UEFA club competitions. Salah was the record-holder beforehand when he managed to score three in six minutes and 12 seconds.

Orban definitely looks like a very exciting talent and it will be very interesting to see if he moves to the Premier League soon.

He would be a great option for Spurs, and if they could keep Kane and sign a young and upcoming forward like Orban then it would be a fantastic summer.
