Recently, there have been rumors thSantiago Gimenez at is leaving Feyenoord, and teams like Barcelona, Real Madrid, Tottenham, and Fulham are interested.
According to Dean Jones, Fulham and Barcelona are interested in signing Santiago Gimenez. However, in the transfer chase, they lag behind teams like Real Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur. It will be interesting to watch if Tottenham and Real Madrid are able to sign the 22-year-old striker in the upcoming months. Tottenham is thought to be in the lead in the transfer market.
Dean Jones said, “Santiago Gimenez is causing all sorts of fuss at the moment, and a lot of recruitment teams across the Premier League are tracking his situation. From what I have been able to gather so far, a move to Tottenham would be a lot more plausible than a move to West Ham or Fulham because this is a player that is already used to the Champions League and feels he has a place at the very top of the game.”
“But there are big teams that Spurs are also going to have to win over if they make their interest firm, including Real Madrid. I’m told they are more likely than Barcelona as a landing spot at this moment and, when we start talking about these sorts of things, it’s pretty clear why a club like Fulham might have their work cut out to sign him. He’s also going to cost big money – I think somewhere towards £60million. But Feyenoord don’t even want to talk about that until the season is over.”
The Mexican striker helped Feyenoord win the league title last season and has demonstrated his talent in the Eredivisie. In every competition, he was able to net 23 goals. He’s the kind of player Tottenham could really use in their attack. Richarlison has not been able to step up and perform at a high level, and they have not signed a quality replacement for Harry Kane. Investing in a striker in January might end up being a smart move.
In a similar vein, Real Madrid needs to sign a top-tier long-term player to replace Karim Benzema, who left at the beginning of the campaign. Gimenez would be a fantastic addition to either team. However, it is unclear if they are willing to spend the rumored £60 million asking price.
In the interim, Barcelona must prepare for life after Robert Lewandowski, a 22-year-old who has become a legitimate target. It’s unclear, though, if the Blaugrana can compete with other European teams for his signature given their current financial struggles.
Additionally, Fulham has been connected to the 22-year-old. However, the striker might be interested in signing with a large team that can contend for major championships. If the West London group could persuade him to relocate to Craven Cottage in the upcoming months, that would be quite the surprise.
It remains to be seen whether Feyenoord are prepared to sell their star striker midway through the season. Signing a player like him in January could transform all four clubs and help them finish the season strongly.
