The transfer market has just closed but smart clubs are keeping an eye on recruitment all year round.
Indeed, while Premier League teams cannot recruit more before January, recruiters, agents and sporting directors are not resting during this period either.
According to Fabrizio Romano, speaking on the Here We Go podcast, Tottenham are still busy in the market and appear to be looking for a very exciting striker.
According to Romano, Armand Lauriente is clearly a player who is highly valued by Spurs, claiming that Tottenham are monitoring and tracking this player although no official approach has been made.

Spurs follow Lauriente
Romano shares what he knows about the French player.
“I wonder if Spurs are still interested in Armand Lauriente. What I can tell you is that I think this rumor is spreading because Tottenham have sent their scouts many times to watch Italian players in general. They are very active in the Italian market,” Romano said.
“They always monitor the Italian market and that is why their recruiters always keep an eye on certain talents. Lauriente performed very well last season for Sassuolo, and he was one of the players monitored by Tottenham but they never made an offer. They have never been involved in negotiations, so I cannot confirm that Tottenham are actively working on a move for Armand Lauriente.
Interesting
This is an interesting rumor to say the least.
Tottenham are already one of the most exciting attacking teams in the league, and with Lauriente up front they will be even more dynamic.
He is a player with a lot to offer. Not only is he a direct ball carrier like Ange Postecoglou loves but he is also an incredible striker on the ball, capable of taking an excellent free-kick.
“He has an incredible shot. “The ball flies at incredible speed and when he hits it correctly, it actually moves in the air, I” goalkeeper Mathieu Dreyer said of his free kicks, according to the Ligue 1 website. Ligue 1 website. “To be honest, they are unsalvageable. The goalkeeper has a hard time.
Of course, having a free-kick specialist around is always helpful, but with James Maddison already in the squad, Lauriente may not be able to showcase that particular talent if he goes to North London.
