Tottenham Hotspur have been vying for a move to bring in a new striker in the upcoming winter transfer window given the lack of backup to Dominic Solanke owing to the inconsistency and unavailability of Richarlison, and the North Londoners have been looking at a potential move for 21-year-old English striker Liam Delap.
Richy has struggled to find his feet at Hotspur Way after moving to White Hart Lane in a highly anticipated transfer; however, he has failed to live up to the expectations, and a probable exit is highly possible in the upcoming windows.

The Lilywhites have been looking at Ipswich Town centre forward Liam Delap as an understudy to Big Dom, with the Man City academy graduate fitting the newly adapted transfer strategy of young players who can develop into their potential in the corridors of Hotspur Way.
However, any potential winter move for the striker will be difficult given how the English top tier newcomers are fighting for survival, and losing a key goalscorer in the middle of a season would be a devastating blow for them. And any pursuit of the 21-year-old’s signature gets more difficult as Tottenham’s city rivals Chelsea hold initial potential talks with the Tractor Boys striker Liam Delap about a potential move, per TEAMTalk.
That being said, despite the challenges of taking him away from Ipswich in the mid-season, Spurs can leverage their project under Ange while promising Delap a platform to develop, and given the Lilywhites track record of nurturing young talent of late, this could be a key selling point in convincing the striker to choose a move to North London over a move to Stamford Bridge, where opportunities might be harder to come by.
