Dominic Solanke will be the new Tottenham striker after they agreed on a £65m fee for the Bournemouth striker

Tottenham Hotspur have agreed to a deal worth a staggering £65m with Bournemouth for their striker Dominic Solanke.

The 26-year-old striker of Nigerian descent has made a single appearance for England, yet he'll be the record sale for Bournemouth, exceeding the £40m they received from Manchester City for defender Nathan Ake in 2020.

Solanke joined Bournemouth for £19m in 2019 from Liverpool, and enjoyed the best season of his career so far in 2023-24, scoring 21 goals in 42 appearances for the Cherries.

Cherries boss Andoni Iraola acknowledged the forward "would be a big miss" should he leave.
