Tottenham Hotspur is gearing up to negotiate a deal for Feyenoord’s star forward Santiago Giménez this summer, but they face intense competition from Arsenal, according to Fox Sports.
Spurs have already strengthened their squad by signing Archie Gray and are close to finalizing a deal for Min-Hyuk Yang, who is unlikely to join the senior team next season.
Manager Ange Postecoglou is eager to make additional signings, particularly to bolster the attack.
Giménez has emerged as a target for Tottenham, alongside other players like Jonathan David and Ivan Toney.
However, they face stiff competition from major clubs like Juventus, AC Milan, RB Leipzig, and Atletico Madrid.
Neither Tottenham nor Arsenal has made a formal offer for Giménez yet, but his agent and father plan to travel to Europe soon to engage in discussions with potential suitors.
Giménez recently returned from playing in the Copa America and has started pre-season training with Feyenoord.
Despite having four years left on his contract, Feyenoord is in a strong position to demand a substantial transfer fee, with Giménez valued at approximately £34 million.
The 23-year-old striker had an impressive season, scoring 23 goals and providing six assists in 30 Eredivisie matches.
His performance has made him a highly sought-after player, and he could be a valuable addition to either Arsenal or Tottenham.
The competition for his signature is intense, and it remains to be seen which club will ultimately secure his services.
This makes for a key storyline in the current transfer window.
