Folarin Balogun is attracting interest from Tottenham Hotspur!

Apparently, Roberto De Zerbi is genuinely interested in signing one of the most prominent stars of the 2026 World Cup to strengthen his attacking line in preparation for next season. Among the names that come under Roberto De Zerbi's radar is the American striker Folarin Balogun.

Reports from The Sun Sport indicate that American star Folarin Balogun has been offered to Tottenham Hotspur through intermediaries. However, there has been no official offer from the London club to sign the player. It's worth noting that the former star spent 15 years at Arsenal before leaving in 2023.

Representatives of Folarin Balogun are approaching Tottenham Hotspur

SunSport has been told Balogun's agents approached Tottenham directly with a pitch, and his affordable fee makes him a tempting option for serious Spurs consideration.

The doubts over Balogun's role at Monaco this season and his future there play right into Tottenham's hands. If Monaco are willing to sell and the price stays fair, Balogun fits a profile ready to slot into De Zerbi's setup.

His speed, knack for finding room in crowded spaces, and two-footed threat match what De Zerbi wants from his forward.

Tottenham maintain their interest in Nicholas Jackson

Tottenham are still very interested in Senegalese player Nicholas Akson to enhance their service capabilities, and up to this moment the London club is still looking for the best available options, including the American star.
