Tottenham are considering making a temporary move for a Liverpool forward, while Arsenal look set to suffer a midfield target blow, according to Thursday’s papers.
TOTTENHAM EYEING UP TEMPORARY KANE REPLACEMENT
Tottenham are reportedly considering Divock Origi as a temporary replacement for injured talisman Harry Kane.
The England captain will be sidelined until early March after suffering ankle ligament damage in the home defeat to Manchester United, leaving Spurs short of attacking options for the next six weeks.
With Son Heung-Min also away on Asian Cup duty with South Korea, Mauricio Pochettino is set to turn to either Fernando Llorente or Lucas Moura to lead the line – although the latter is on his way back from injury himself.
Pochettino is said to have held transfer talks with chairman Daniel Levy on Wednesday, as he considers bringing in a replacement, and the Daily Telegraph states that Tottenham are considering a move for Reds forward Origi.
Divock Origi TEAMtalk
The 23-year-old Belgian has fallen way down the pecking order at Anfield but the likelihood of Liverpool allowing one of their squad players to join a title rival seems highly unlikely, especially after they allowed Dominic Solanke to recently join Bournemouth.
Spurs, however, face a difficult decision over who to replace Kane with, especially as Llorente has already made it clear that he would prefer a move back to Spain this month to get some regular game time.
