Tottenham suffer blow in their approach for prolific Fulham star; player ready to stay put for next season

However, the same cannot be said about Solanke’s strike partner Richarlison. The Brazil international was side-lined for most parts of the season with a long-term injury, and he also fell down the pecking order under Ange Postecoglou after his recovery. The 28-year-old has failed to make an impact at N17 and has never quite managed to become a consistent starter for the North London club.

Tottenham might fail to land Fulham striker Rodrigo Muniz

There is a clear need to bring in a new striker that would keep Dominic Solanke on his toes next season and compete for a spot in the starting eleven. With Richarlison potentially heading for the exit doors, Daniel Levy must aim to bring in a quality replacement that would elevate the attacking ceiling at the club.

It was reported earlier that Spurs were interested in signing Rodrigo Muniz from Fulham in the summer. The Lilywhites are keen to add the Brazilian to their ranks, and are willing to test the waters for his signature. The aforementioned report also suggested that Muniz is also keen to test himself in a new environment and would not rule out a move to N17 as the North London club offers Champions League football.

However, Tottenham have now received a massive setback in their approach to sign the 24-year-old. As per Sky Sports journalist Lyall Thomas (via X) , Fulham have no intentions of losing Rodrigo Muniz in the summer. Marco Silva views the prolific striker as a crucial part of the team and the Cottagers are willing to fend off any potential suitors in the summer.

Fans will now hope that Daniel Levy shifts his focus on other alternatives as he looks to add a new striker to compete with Dominic Solanke. It was reported earlier that the Lilywhites are interested in signing OGC Nice forward Evann Guessand for next season. The prolific striker enjoyed a stellar individual campaign last season, and Spurs have taken notice of that.
