Report: London rivals are now ready to fight Tottenham for Gift Orban

Football Insider have reported that Fulham are now ready to battle Tottenham Hotspur in the race for Gent striker, Gift Orban. 

Fulham have reportedly drafted a list of replacements for Aleksandar Mitrovic, who is on his way to Saudi Arabia, and the 21-year-old Nigerian has made the cut.

In fact, a source has apparently told Football Insider that Orban is one of just two strikers on Fulham’s radar to replace their Serbian goal machine.

Tottenham and Fulham both like Gift Orban

This comes after Tottenham have been heavily linked with Gift Orban ever since Harry Kane’s move to Bayern, with some reports claiming Spurs are expected to send an official bid very soon (Evening Standard).

Fabrizio Romano confirmed to GiveMeSport that Spurs have Orban on their list and the youngster is very keen on a move to the Premier League this summer.

Spurs Web Opinion:

Considering Gift Orban is the only striker Spurs are being consistently linked with, I would be surprised if they didn’t at least make a bid. I know Tottenham need to sell players first, but the striker position is a bit sparse in N17 and they may regret not moving quickly.
