‘Bring him to the club’ – Some Spurs fans call on club to sign Southampton player

Multiple reports have suggested that a backup striker to Harry Kane is one of Tottenham’s priorities when the transfer window opens.

The club have been linked with players such as Arkadiusz Milik (Football.London), Patrik Schick (Daily Mail) and M’Baye Niang (Le Parisien) over the past few weeks.

However, some Spurs fans have urged the club to instead swoop for Southampton striker Danny Ings, who has been on fire since the restart of the Premier League.

The striker was unplayable in the Saints’ 3-1 win over Watford on Sunday when he netted a well-taken brace.

The North Londoners reportedly tried to sign Ings during the January transfer window (Daily Star).

With Southampton potentially being forced into selling several of their top stars this summer if they fail to secure a buyer for the club, some Spurs fans want the club to nab the 27-year-old from the south coast outfit.

Here’s how some fans reacted to Ings’ performance against Watford:

Spurs Web Opinion

Fans who think we have any chance of singing Ings are living in dreamland. Not only are we unlikely to be in a position to afford him but why would he want to come to Spurs and play second fiddle to Kane after warming the bench for years at Liverpool?

Besides, there is a clear pattern in the strikers we have been linked with. Jose is after a target man with physical presence who can hold up the ball. Ings does not fit that billing and is quite similar to Kane.
