Various rumours are circling regarding Connor Wickham, the 17 year old striker from Ipswich. The England under 21 international is considered one of the hottest young properties and has courted attention from some of the biggest clubs including Manchester United, Chelsea and Spurs.
There is a suggestion that there is already an agreement between Tottenham and Ipswich in place in that Spurs have an option to sign him. Although other reports say he has not yet made up his mind.
Tottenham will be on the lookout for probably two new strikers this summer. Our frontline has been misfiring all season with only seven league goals between Defoe, Crouch and Pavyluchenko with the latter looking to leave in the summer.
As a youngster Wickham may be a good 4th Striker. I believe if Wickham were to come to Spurs he would benefit from training with an experienced top class centre forward i.e. Drogba, Fabiano, Huntelaar. I am sure this would be an ideal scenario for a young English player.
As with all transfer rumours I treat this one with a pinch of salt.
