Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing the OGC Nice attacker Evann Guessand at the end of the season.
The 23-year-old has done quite well for the French outfit this season, scoring 13 goals in all competitions, and he has 10 assists as well. He could prove to be a very useful acquisition for Tottenham. They need more quality and depth in the attacking unit, and the 23-year-old is versatile enough to operate anywhere across the front three.
He is available for a reasonable amount of money this summer. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham can get the deal done. They can sign the player for just €28 million in the coming weeks, as per Fraternité Matin.
Guessand is highly rated across Europe, and he has been likened to the former Chelsea star Didier Drogba because of his playing style. He has the physicality and athleticism to do well in the Premier League and could be an important player for Tottenham.
The 23-year-old will be attracted to the idea of moving to English football, and it would be an exciting step up in his career. He has proven himself in France, and he will look to make his mark in England as well.
Tottenham have secured Champions League qualification for the next season, and they will be an attractive destination for players. The 23-year-old will certainly fancy the opportunity of playing for them next season.
The reported asking price is quite reasonable, and he could prove to be a bargain in future. It remains to be seen whether Tottenham follow up on their interest with an official offer to sign the player.
