George Ilenikhena: Tottenham Hotspur Reportedly Eyeing Nigerian Star to Revamp Forward Line

• Tottenham Hotspur is reportedly interested in 17-year-old Nigerian, George Ilenikhena
• The Royal Antwerp striker has impressed in the Belgian league, contributing to 15 goals
• Spurs are also said to be interested in signing Spanish-Nigerian striker, Sam Omorodion

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly offered to sign 17-year-old Nigerian striker, George Osrzehmen Ilenikhena, from Royal Antwerp.

Ilenikhena has been impressive for the Belgian side, contributing to 15 goals in 48 games since joining from Amiens SC last summer.

Premier League side, Tottenham, has now apparently joined Inter Milan in the pursuit of the teenager to bolster their attacking line.

The North London club is said to be on the hunt for a clinical finisher to fill the void left by Harry Kane.

Currently fifth in the league, Ange Postecoglou's side has struggled to find the back of the net. Son Heung-Min and Richarlison lead the charge with 17 and 11 goals, respectively, as per Soccernet.

The team's lack of firepower has been exposed, with the Australian manager said to be keen on addressing the issue.

Royal Antwerp ready to part with Ilenikhena

According to Voetbal Krant, Antwerp is willing to part ways with Ilenikhena for at least €20 million, a price tag that has triggered reconsideration from the new Serie A champions.

However, Spurs are said to be undeterred and clearly see the youngster as a valuable asset for the future.

If the deal for Ilenikhena falls through, the club is also reportedly considering Spanish-Nigerian striker, Sam Omorodion, who has scored nine goals in 32 games for Depotivo Alaves on loan from Atletico Madrid.

Tottenham has no plans to offload underperforming midfielder, Yves Bissouma, who has experienced a resurgence in form under Postecoglou to become a key player for Spurs alongside Pape Sarr.

Spurs will host Burnley in their next home league fixture on Saturday, May 11.

Sports Brief also reported that Postecoglou warned of change at Tottenham in the upcoming transfer window.

This could mean a big clear-out at the North London club, with Richarlison said to be among those on the block.
