football.london understands that one striker Tottenham are still interested in, among a couple of targets, is 25-year-old Metz striker Habib Diallo.

The 6ft 1ins Senegal international scored 12 goals in 26 Ligue 1 starts last season in a struggling, newly-promoted Metz side and is another who fits in with the strong character profile of transfers this summer, having captained Metz for many of their games last season.

Diallo fired Metz back into the top flight the season before with 26 goals in 37 league matches.

He has two years left on his contract at the French club and Tottenham made enquiries about him during the January transfer window with the striker keen to link up with Mourinho.

Reckon this is the guy JJ is on about

I agree. I said in the ITK that the answer would appear in the press today give the previous suggestions that they are normally 3 days behind.

This is clearly the guy. JJ leaked it today and now Ally Gold has been told to ship it out to the masses.

Vaguely heard of him. Is he decent?

I don't know, I can only ever get about 1 and a half minutes into those highlight videos these days. Maybe somebody who's managed 3 or 4 minutes will be able to give us an in-depth scoop.

The stats say that he's decent enough, the issue is that stats can be misleading sometimes. I doubt anyone on here has watched Metz closely, but I'd be interested to know about his ability on the ball.

From a super intense viewing of that 2 minute clip, he look like he can handle himself with a neat trick or two on the dribble. First touch seemed a bit loose though.

This window when Ally Gold has said ‘spurs are interested in’ a player, it’s normally followed the next day with a figure, then two days after that they’ve signed. So this guy will probably be holding up a shirt by next weekend :LOL:
