TOTTENHAM has joined the race to sign Genk striker Paul Onuachu as a potential Harry Kane backup NewsReport gathered.

According to the Daily Mail, Spurs will have to beat Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, Southampton, and West Ham.

According to the same report, North London rivals Arsenal have already made inquiries about Onuachu.

The Premier League club will also need to reach an agreement with the Belgian club, which values the 6ft, 7inh striker, at around £20 million.

Atletico is said to be among the frontrunners for the striker signature but it seems like he prefers a move to the Prem.

Tottenham is on the lookout for a back-up to Kane, who expressed his desire to leave last summer.

The England captain was approached by Manchester City but the Prem champions failed to meet his asking price.

The 28-year-old has a contract until 2024 but his future still appears uncertain amid a shaky campaign that has seen him scoring just once in seven Premier League matches.

Tottenham is reportedly keeping tabs on Fiorentina star Dusan Vlahovic as well but is facing intense competition from Juventus.

That is why they are also eyeing Onuachu, who has been in stellar form so far this term.

The Nigeria international has already netted 11 goals in 15 appearances across all competitions for Genk.

The 27-year-old joined the Belgian outfit in 2019 following an impressive seven-year stint at Midtjylland.

The Nigerian has since registered a whopping 56 goals and seven assists in 84 matches.
