At the moment, Spurs do not have any top back-up option for Harry Kane. Troy Parrott is one of the highly-rated young talents in world football, but he doesn’t seem to earn the trust of manager Jose Mourinho.
On top of that, Tottenham’s problems would exacerbate if Kane decides to leave the club. The England striker has hinted that he would leave Spurs in the future, while the north London could cash in on him as well in order to provide Mourinho with the funds to bring in the right profile of players.
Put simply, signing a striker in the summer is a priority.
