According to reports, Tottenham Hotspur<\/a> have received \u2018approval\u2019 over signing Galatasaray star Victor Osimhen in a deal potentially worth \u00a365m.<\/p>\n

Spurs <\/a>have already made a statement in this summer\u2019s transfer window, having invested over \u00a3230m on arrivals as the biggest spenders in Europe.<\/a><\/p>\n

So far this summer, Roberto De Zerbi\u2019s side have landed Sandro Tonali, Matheus Fernandes, Jan Paul van Hecke, Andy Robertson, Marcos Senesi and Martin Dubravka.<\/p>\n

But the north London outfit remain in the market for more additions. Their next priority is to improve their attack, and they could sign a striker and\/or winger in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

Tottenham are known to be targeting Liverpool\u2019s Cody Gakpo and Manchester City\u2019s Savinho, but they are now reportedly making a move for Osimhen<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And Tottenham are reportedly trying to make another statement signing by landing Osimhen, with Caught Offside reporting<\/a> that they are \u2018ready to make a blockbuster move\u2019 for the striker after making \u2018initial approaches\u2019.<\/p>\n

It is also stated that Tottenham have indicated that they have proposed a package worth around \u00a350-55m, though Galatasaray are said to be holding out for \u00a365m.<\/p>\n

Regarding personal terms, the report explains: \u2018Tottenham have received sporting approval to begin formal negotiations and believe personal terms would not create a major obstacle, sources close to the agents industry have informed CaughtOffside.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cI love how Tottenham have behaved\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

And ex-Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Jamie Redknapp has praised his former club for their conduct in this transfer window, claiming they are \u201cbehaving like a big club\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love how Tottenham have behaved in this window,\u201d Redknapp told Sky Sports.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s the first time I\u2019ve seen Tottenham behave like a big club in a long time. The players they\u2019ve brought in, Tonali and Fernandes, are going to be excellent midfield players. They\u2019re going to be top class, exactly what they need.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you were to look at one area, it would certainly be in the forward line. Can they get somebody to help (Dominic) Solanke and take that pressure off him?<\/p>\n

\u201c(Mohammed) Kudus is going to be back as well. (Dejan) Kulusevski is coming back, I\u2019m a big fan of his.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo they are looking in a really, really good situation. Even some of the players they\u2019ve got on free transfers. (Marcos) Senesi is going to be a good signing. He\u2019s done a great job at Bournemouth.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith how they\u2019re behaving and the managers they\u2019ve got in, I think they\u2019re going to have a really strong season this year.And I\u2019ve not said that for a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n
