Tottenham Hotspur snapped up Archie Gray last week but are now looking towards the next signing who could bolster Ange Postecoglou’s options.
The new Premier League season is just over a month away and Tottenham Hotspur are looking to strike more deals in the transfer market.
Archie Gray arrived from Leeds United last week as Tottenham pounced to beat Brentford in the race for his signature.
The 18-year-old has shown huge potential in the Championship and Tottenham are now looking for him to become a star in the Premier League.
Gray joins Lucas Bergvall and Timo Werner in joining Tottenham this summer, with Werner penning a new loan deal from RB Leipzig.
That is a decent start to the window for Tottenham but more will be needed as Ange Postecoglou prepares for a Europa League campaign.
Tottenham Hotspur have next signing in mind
Bergvall and Gray are top young midfielders for the future whilst Werner is likely to operate predominantly as a left-sided winger under Spurs boss Postecoglou.
Fans will be keen to know who will be next through the door and Tottenham do appear to have a plan in mind.
BBC Sport claim that Tottenham are ‘keen to sign a forward as their next big transfer’ this summer.
No names are given but Spurs appear to be focusing all attention on giving Postecoglou more attacking options.
Tottenham have not yet signed a real centre forward to replace Harry Kane following his move to Bayern Munich.
Now may be the right time for Tottenham to pounce for another striker, especially with Werner viewed more as a wide man.

Who could Tottenham bring in?
If Tottenham go for a centre forward, then there could be a number of options on the radar.
Feyenoord striker Santiago Gimenez has been on Tottenham’s radar for a while now and The Spurs News understands that there is strong interest in the Mexican.
Gimenez hit 26 goals in all competitions last season and he may fancy a move away from Rotterdam after seeing boss Arne Slot move to Liverpool.
Sporting striker Viktor Gyokeres, RB Leipzig’s Lois Openda and Brentford’s Ivan Toney are all understood to feature alongside Gimenez on a six-man striking wish list for Tottenham this summer.
Don’t be surprised if Tottenham’s attacking plans aren’t actually a striker though.
Postecoglou has brought in two forwards who can play up front if needed but mostly play out wide in Werner and Brennan Johnson.
Tottenham may well go down that route again with Rennes talent Desire Doue understood to be a key target.
Doue is more of a winger but his versatility to play in different roles may seriously appeal to Postecoglou.
Tottenham committed decent money to the Gray deal but may now be ready to spend again in order to add more quality in the final third.
