Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur fit dey fight to bring one Serie A striker enter Premier League for January transfer window.

Enzo Maresca team dey short for front line, with Liam Delap just dey return from thigh injury, Marc Guiu no fully trusted by Italian manager and Joao Pedro no be proper centre-forward.

For Spurs side, Thomas Frank dey look for attacker to compete with Richarlison wey don score fourth PL goal for Saturday 2-2 draw vs Man Utd, Dominic Solanke wey still dey injured, Mathys Tel wey score against United, and on-loan Randal Kolo Muani.

Chelsea and Spurs dey eye Juventus striker Jonathan David

Tutto Mercato report say both clubs fit move for Jonathan David, wey just join Juventus for summer. David come after five years for Lille, wey e win Ligue 1 first season 2020-21 with 13 goals in 37 games.

Canadian star score 109 goals in 232 games for Lille, wey make Juventus sign am free transfer for summer. But David never shine well for Italy yet.

25-year-old forward dey part of Juventus attack wey fail score for seven games before Igor Tudor sack and Luciano Spalletti come, wey make Dusan Vlahovic revive small. Vlahovic contract go finish next summer, but Juventus fit extend am, wey fit make David fit waka leave Turin.

Wetyn David fit give Chelsea or Spurs?

Even tho we no sure if Premier League clubs dey really pursue David, the rumour get reason. David don score only one goal in 13 games for Juventus, no be world-class signing, but him fit give Chelsea or Spurs better double-digit goal return.

Joao Pedro get only experience last season for Brighton, no be proper striker, and Delap get only one full top-flight season for Ipswich Town.

Considering Spurs limited options, signing David with him scoring ability — even tho Serie A no too easy — fit improve their attack. But e go depend if anybody go leave to clear way for transfer.
