According to L’Est Republican (h/t The Sun), Tottenham Hotspur have ‘made contact’ over Cedric Bakambu, after the 27-year-old’s impressive form in the Chinese Super League.
Bakambu left Villarreal to join Beijing Sinobo Guoan in January 2018 and has gone on to score and create 24 goals in 23 games in all competitions. He has three years remaining on his deal at the Workers’ Stadium but could return to Europe following Tottenham’s interest.
Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino wants competition for Harry Kane, with Fernando Llorente having struggled for form and playing time since joining from Swansea City on August 2017.
