Tottenham have agreed a £65m deal with Bournemouth for striker Dominic Solanke.
The deal will see Spurs pay an initial £55m with £10m possible to follow in bonuses. Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou has targeted centre-forward depth this summer as he seeks replacement for Harry Kane who joined Bayern Munich last summer.
A statement on the Tottenham website said Solanke signed a deal “that will run until 2030”.
Solanke, who scored 19 Premier League goals last season missed Bournemouth’s pre-season friendly with Rayo Vallecano last weekend due to a foot injury.
During his time on the south coast, Solanke made 216 appearances in all competitions, scoring 77 goals and last term, Solanke played for Bournemouth in every one of their 38 Premier League games.
Solanke finished as joint fourth highest goalscorer in the Premier League.
In a post on social media, Solanke said, “The training ground is indeed amazing,” in reference to a post on X in 2012.
Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou highlighted the need for another centre forward option when he spoke to football.london: “You know we play a certain way. We demand certain things from a physical perspective from the technical aspects of it that it’s going be a striker that fits that mould.
“It’s still the area of the park we’re really probably the thinnest when I talk about squad-wise at the moment, so obviously that’s a focus for us.”
