Tottenham considers January striker addition after slow Premier League start
Summary

Tottenham Hotspur may target a new forward in the January transfer window amid a challenging start to their Premier League campaign. The team has struggled offensively, failing to score in their opening four matches, including a goalless draw with Everton. Manager Roberto De Zerbi's tactics demand strong movement and link-up play from attackers, raising questions about the current squad's performance. South Korean striker Oh Hyeon-gyu is reportedly a target, with the club also evaluating the roles of existing forwards. Decisions in January may depend on the team’s goal-scoring form leading up to the transfer window.
