According to a report by Radio Sevilla (as relayed by Carrusel Deportivo), Tottenham Hotspur are now plotting a move for Sevilla forward Youssef En-Nesyri.
En-Nesyri has been one of the few shining lights in what was a poor 2024-25 campaign for Sevilla, with the centre-forward finding the back of the net 20 times last season despite playing for a struggling side.

However, Radio Sevilla explain that the club have to raise funds this summer in order to offset their losses and have decided to sacrifice their star man when the transfer window opens.
The report points out that since the Morocco international has just a year left on his contract, Sevilla want to seize the opportunity to cash in on him during the upcoming window.
Tottenham are interested in Youssef En-Nesyri
It is revealed that there is ‘a lot of movement’ around En-Nesyri, with Tottenham one of the clubs expressing an interest in signing him.
It is suggested that Ange Postecoglou’s men want to add a number nine to their squad and are now ‘pushing to take’ the 27-year-old to N17.
Finally, the publication adds that the Andalusian club are hoping to earn around €30m (£25.5m) from the striker’s sale this summer.
En-Nesyri has scored 73 goals in 196 appearances across all competitions during his time at Sevilla, which is a pretty respectable return rate (transfermarkt).

En-Nesyri is the sort of striker that Postecoglou likes, with the Moroccan capable of linking play, playing on the shoulder of the defence and also being able to interchange and occupy the wide areas.
Given the relatively low price tag involved, I can understand why the 27-year-old would be a tempting option for the North Londoners.
That being said, hopefully, the club are still monitoring Ivan Toney‘s situation considering he is proven Premier League goalscorer.
