Tottenham Hotspur preparing move for Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly preparing to renew their pursuit of Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin during the January transfer window.

Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou is said to be seeking a more physical No. 9, and Calvert-Lewin fits the bill with his presence and experience in the Premier League.

According to reports from Fichajes, Tottenham are looking to take advantage of Calvert-Lewin’s current contract situation at Everton. The England forward’s contract is set to expire in the summer of 2025, and he has reportedly turned down an offer to extend his stay at Goodison Park. With the 27-year-old looking for a fresh challenge at this point in his career, Spurs could be poised to make a move in the winter window.

While Calvert-Lewin may not have the goal-scoring record of some of the Premier League’s top strikers, having netted 84 goals in 295 career appearances, it’s important to consider his injury history. Injuries have disrupted his ability to build on strong performances in recent seasons, but when fully fit, he has shown his value as a target man and a physical presence in the box.

On the international stage, Calvert-Lewin has made 11 appearances for England, scoring four goals. Though he has not established himself as a regular starter for the Three Lions, his performances have been solid, and his physicality and aerial ability make him a valuable asset when he is fit.

Calvert-Lewin has often been compared to Tottenham’s all-time leading scorer, Harry Kane, who departed for Bayern Munich last summer. Like Kane, Calvert-Lewin offers strength and strong hold-up play, which could make him an ideal fit for Postecoglou’s tactical approach. While it’s a high bar to live up to, many believe that Calvert-Lewin could thrive in a system designed to get the best out of his attributes.

For Tottenham, bringing in a striker like Calvert-Lewin would provide depth and competition in the forward line. Since Kane’s departure, Spurs have been on the lookout for a player who can fill the void and offer a physical presence up front, and Calvert-Lewin could be the perfect solution. If a move materializes, he could have the chance to prove himself on a bigger stage and take his career to the next level.

As the January transfer window approaches, Tottenham’s interest in Calvert-Lewin is likely to intensify. With the striker seemingly open to a new challenge, Everton could face a tough decision if Spurs decide to make a serious offer.
