Tottenham will be delighted as Julen Lopetegui wants to sign 23-yo Englishman for £15m after David Moyes failed to sign him for West Ham

Tottenham Hotspur is hopeful that this summer, West Ham United fulfills their transfer goal of signing a valuable player in Julen Lopetegui.

In an attempt to strengthen his attacking lineup at the London Stadium this summer, West Ham manager Julen Lopetegui may be doing Tottenham a great service.

The Hammers have Wilfried Zaha firmly on their radar, but Lopetegui seems to be sweeping the field.

The Spaniard, particularly in the left wing department, needs to inject some cunning, inventiveness, and wit into our front line.

Ideally, after Said Benrahma was let go in January without being replaced, the former Wolves manager will sign a left winger with a right foot this summer.

According to the most recent West Ham transfer rumour, Lopetegui is pursuing a former target of ours, someone David Moyes fervently attempted to get to the London Stadium.

Spurs will also be pleading for the transaction to close.

Thus, the Sunday Express (print edition, June 2, page 5 of the sports pull-out) reports that the Hammers are among numerous Premier League teams vying for Sunderland striker Jack Clarke.

The Mirror reports that when Clarke left Tottenham in 2022 to join Sunderland, Tottenham inserted a 25% sell-on clause.

Spurs will therefore be eligible for a tidy little £3.75 million bonus if West Ham signs the 23-year-old winger for £15 million.

Moyes attempted, but was unable, to bring the English winger to London Stadium during the January transfer window.

With just 40 Championship games played, Clarke scored 15 goals and provided four assists for Sunderland this past season (Transfermarkt).

The winger is a great goal creator and scorer who exhibits remarkable technical skill and directness with the ball at his feet.

At this point in his career, Clarke is entering his prime, and over the next several years, he will surely only get better.

The Tottenham board will be crossing its fingers that we are successful in our pursuit of the former Spurs player. Julen Lopetegui cannot go wrong by bringing the Sunderland star to West Ham for just £15 million this summer.
