3 Dominic Solanke replacements worth Tottenham pursuing in the winter
Tottenham Hotspur are running into a clear solution this winter, and that is to sign a new striker to replace Dominic Solanke, who is struggling to do any of what Spurs require from their starting No. 9. Solanke has scored just one goal in the Premier League and despite countless opportunities, he has yet to bring the other forwards into play.
Assuming Spurs are able to move on from him this winter, which is a big assumption, here are three top strikers they can sign to replace the English forward.
Eli Junior Kroupi, Bournemouth
Tottenham were linked to Eli Junior Kroupi in the summer, but Bournemouth were uninterested in selling their young star to Spurs, PSG, or anyone else for that matter. Kroupi probably won't be available this winter and is more likely to go in the summer for a fee well above 100 million pounds, but if there is any chance of Kroupi moving sooner than that, Spurs have to take it. All the teenagers who have scored double digit Premier League goals went on to be something, and Kroupi did it in half a season as a starter on an underdog team. He is special.
Amine Gouiri, Marseille
Amine Gouiri has been one of the best all around strikers in French football for the last handful of years, and he was once so touted that Real Madrid were thinking about him as a possible heir to Karim Benzema. Roberto De Zerbi has first hand experience with Gouiri, who is now playing his best football in the 2026/27 Ligue 1 season despite Marseille being a train wreck. Gouiri can create chances for himself and others out of nothing, and his finesse finishing is class. He is a great secondary option to someone like Kroupi, and he has the tools to be a great fit for what De Zerbi wants to do in possession.
Nicolo Tresoldi, Club Brugge
With eight goals and an assist in ten league starts for Club Brugge, the 22 year old Nicolo Tresoldi continues to look special and like a true goal scoring striker for the next decade. Premier League clubs like Everton and Brentford are in on him, but so are the big boys like Manchester United and Spurs rivals Arsenal. Tresoldi is a clinical finisher and eagle eyed positioner in the box. He makes a ton of sense for Spurs in the case of Eli Junior Kroupi not being available.
