Football-talk.co.uk – LONDON, Tottenham have joined Arsenal and Manchester United in the race to sign Porto striker Mehdi Taremi this summer, as per journalist Sacha Tavolieri. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Portuguese outlet O Jogo claimed last week that Arsenal and United are looking to sign the 30-year-old forward \u2013 who has established himself as one of the best attackers in the Portuguese league.<\/p>\n

However, the duo face further competition as Tavolieri claims that Tottenham have also joined the race to sign Taremi as they look to bolster their forward department.<\/p>\n

Star striker Harry Kane has been targeted by Bayern Munich and Daniel Levy may decide to cash-in if the German giants meet his asking price given the 29-year-old\u2019s precarious contract situation. Therefore, they could be looking at Taremi as a replacement.<\/p>\n

The Iranian international has been in superb scoring form in recent years and managed 22 goals and seven assists in 33 league appearances last term.<\/p>\n

Tavolieri claims that AC Milan have made a move for Taremi already but both Lille and Tottenham are interested in signing him. The journalist adds that Porto are demanding a fee of around \u00a317m for Taremi and that he could leave in the summer window.<\/p>\n

Battle for Taremi <\/strong><\/p>\n

It seems Taremi is one of those players who is a late bloomer. His performances in recent years have been outstanding but it would still be a gamble for the likes of Arsenal, Man Utd or Tottenham to buy a soon-to-be 31-year-old who\u2019s never proven himself in England.<\/p>\n

Arsenal are well stocked in their forward department but Mikel Arteta could still sign a new striker if Folarin Balogun leaves the club.<\/p>\n

Man United on the other hand are in dire need of a striker. Taremi could arrive at a decent price, but is he the type of player who can help the club close the gap on Man City?<\/p>\n

Spurs could be an interesting option for the Iranian striker, but Ange Postecoglou should look to build a strong side with young talented players who will have a good resale value.<\/p>\n

This is probably Taremi\u2019s best chance to secure a move to the Premier League, and he should grab opportunities with both hands if Arsenal, United, or Tottenham come calling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
