Tottenham should consider a shock transfer move for out-of-favour Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres, according to former manager David Pleat.

Roberto De Zerbi’s side won three of their four matches prior to the international break to move up to 11th in the Premier League table.

Despite their lavish summer spending, Spurs still lack a reliable goalscorer, with centre-back Jan Paul van Hecke the only player to have scored more than one league goal so far this season.

And while he is not blown away by the options on the market, Pleat suggested that Spurs look to their arch-rivals for a solution to their lack of goal-scoring threat.

‘There aren’t many out there, there’s a very small amount of strikers,’ he told The Last Word On Spurs.

‘Are you going to buy Lankshear back now for £50 million? He’s the top scorer in the Championship, our boy.

‘So where are you going to get? Are Arsenal going to give us someone like Jesus, or someone they don’t want? He’s gone already, but, Gyokeres, perhaps. Who else is there?’

‘[Brian] Brobbey gave us trouble… [Dominic] Calvert-Lewin is very good in the air but had injury problems.

‘When you are signing a striker, it’s about what type of striker. Is he exceptionally good in the air, is he a bully-type striker like Delap or is a clever front player, more like Havertz.’
