Ex-Tottenham Hotspur striker urges Daniel Levy to sign Bundesliga forward
Former Tottenham Hotspur striker Mido has pleaded with the Lilywhites to make a move for a prolific Eintracht Frankfurt forward this summer.
After failing to sign a direct replacement for Harry Kane, Lilywhites are expected to be in the market for new attackers ahead of the 2024-25 season, as offers are expected to be entertained for the out-of-favour Bryan Gil.
In addition, Spurs are yet to decide whether to activate their option to sign Timo Werner on a permanent deal from RB Leipzig, in spite of the fact that he has made a positive start to life in North London.
The former Chelsea forward has hinted that he would be open to staying on at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and Ange Postecoglou's side would only need to pay around £15m to keep him on the books.
However, Tottenham are thought to be scoping out alternative wide options in case Werner heads back to Germany and have been linked with Juventus' Samuel Iling-Junior, Barcelona's Raphinha and Athletic Bilbao's Nico Williams.
Mido urges Tottenham to move for Omar MarmoushAlternatively, Mido — who scored 19 goals in 61 appearances for Spurs from 2004 to 2007 — has claimed that the Lilywhites should pursue Eintracht Frankfurt man and fellow Egyptian Omar Marmoush.
The 41-year-old wrote on X — formerly known as Twitter — that he advised Tottenham to make a move for Liverpool's Mohamed Salah while he was representing Basel, but the club did not listen to him.
With Salah now smashing records for fun at Anfield, Mido has issued a personal plea to Daniel Levy to make a move for Marmoush, whom he claims will fit «perfectly» into Postecoglou's system.
