Press reports indicated that Roberto De Zerbi, Tottenham Hotspur coach, aspires to build a fiery attacking line during the next season, with the Egyptian international Omar Marmoush primarily within the plan.
And Johan Lange, the sports director of the London club, spent approximately £250 million on attracting new players during the current summer transfer window, without signing a striker yet.
During the team's preparatory tour for the season in Australia, the Tottenham coach clarified his ambition to strengthen the attacking line, adding: "The goal now is to complete the attacking line, we want the first goal, the first level, because we already have important players, but I think we need other important players to start the new project, certainly."
He added: "We have completed 60% of our project in the transfer market, now we have another 'Bomba' player, have we come close to completing the deal? I hope so, but it is certainly not finished, we must increase the number of goals by improving performance and the quality of play, whether with midfielders or strikers, but we must also sign players capable of scoring goals."
De Zerbi outlines Tottenham's attacking features
According to what was reported by the English network "Football London", the expected lineup for Tottenham's attacking line in the new Premier League season will include heavyweight players, according to coach De Zerbi's plan.
The report noted that De Zerbi should deploy Cody Gakpo on the left wing, as Arne Slot did at Liverpool, and the Dutch international has participated in 78 matches, scoring 26 goals and providing 12 assists.
It seems that the Ghanaian Mohammed Kudus will be a key player for Tottenham under De Zerbi's leadership, as there is currently no better right winger than the 25-year-old at the London club, given his attacking effectiveness, ability to carry the ball, and great effort without it, making him extremely useful.
Omar Marmoush.. A card Tottenham's attack needs
The "Football London" report indicated that the Egyptian international, Omar Marmoush, would be an excellent addition to Tottenham's starting lineup, especially if deployed as a second striker behind Dominic Solanke.
Although the 27-year-old striker is fully capable of leading the attack, he previously achieved great success playing behind the striker, especially towards the end of his time with German club Eintracht Frankfurt.
With a strong midfield pivot including Sandro Tonali and one of the duo Matheus Fernandes, Archie Gray, Conor Gallagher, Rodrigo Bentancur, or Pape Matar Sarr, De Zerbi can adopt a clear attacking approach this season.
Under Pep Guardiola's leadership, Marmoush did not enjoy great confidence, and if the Egyptian player feels he does not have a big opportunity under Enzo Maresca, he may seek a new start outside the Etihad Stadium.
Solanke a link for the attacking line
The British network confirmed the need to give Dominic Solanke the opportunity to lead Tottenham's attack this season, and although the 28-year-old striker did not deliver a convincing performance last season, he spent more than half the season as a substitute due to injury.
When fit and available, he showed glimpses of great talent, scoring in all three of his Champions League matches, in addition to scoring two goals against Manchester City in the Premier League.
By signing Marmoush, who excels with a clear striker in front of him, and with Gakpo, who can stretch play and exploit spaces behind him, Solanke will get the necessary support to regain his previous level.
The Italian coach is expected to deploy multiple attacking options, with the availability of distinguished players such as Xavi Simons, Wilson Odobert, and Dejan Kulusevski later this season.
If Tottenham succeed in signing Gakpo and Marmoush to their squad this summer, the team will be fully prepared to participate in the Champions League next season.
But there is one problem, as Tottenham have spent approximately £250 million on new players this summer, so De Zerbi will need cash liquidity, either through selling some players or additional investment from the owners.
The report concluded that Roberto De Zerbi's vision for Tottenham's new attacking elements is fully represented by the presence of: Cody Gakpo, Omar Marmoush, Mohammed Kudus; Dominic Solanke.
