The agency of Santiago Gimenez revealed Tottenham’s interest in the in-form 22-year-old striker, who Ange Postecoglou may want to sign.
Santiago Gimenez has captured the attention of the media, who are eager to link him to transfers to big teams. The Mexican has been in excellent form and appears to be on a quest to smash Coen Dillen’s Eredivisie scoring record of 43 goals in one season.
Nobody would have dreamt of mentioning Gimenez in the same sentence as Dillen, given that the Mexican only scored 15 goals last season. His goals were vital in Feyenoord winning the Eredivisie for the second time in a century.
Gimenez has already shattered Feyenoord’s season goal scoring record after only eight games. His brace against PEC Zwolle brought his season total to 12 goals. If he keeps up his present form, he might break the Eredivisie record.
Gimenez has been linked with a move away from Feyenoord since the summer transfer market opened, with Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, and Chelsea among those interested. Feyenoord is aware of the interest and may expect a sizable price in exchange.

According to some accounts, Arsenal and Tottenham were required to pay €50 million or more, which appears to be within the London clubs’ budgets. Tottenham, according to his agency, ED, are interested in signing him in the future.
“Santi is one of the top ten (most sought-after) players in Europe,” Gimenez’s agent stated.Tottenham Hotspur are also interested. Many clubs are interested in him. Milan, Inter, Napoli, and Lazio are among the clubs involved. Atletico Madrid was really intrigued.”
Tottenham, on the other hand, currently lacks a high-caliber center-forward, as Ange Postecoglou has utilized Son Heung-min in the No.9 role, despite the South Korean’s best position being on the left. Richarlison also requires support up front, and so far, the Brazilian has yet to prove himself as the starting striker since his arrival in the summer of 2022.
Santiago Gimenez, on the other hand, harbors dreams of a move to Real Madrid, if circumstances align in his favor. The 22-year-old striker, who is in top form, remains open to joining a Premier League club if a move to Spain doesn’t materialize. Therefore, Tottenham has a golden opportunity to secure his services, and Postecoglou would likely want to acquire him in January to bolster their chances of sustaining a potential title challenge.
Following their victory over Luton Town, Tottenham currently sits atop the Premier League table. Arsenal’s win over Manchester City has brought them level on points with Spurs, but Postecoglou’s team retains the top spot thanks to their superior goal-scoring record.
