Tottenham are looking to rival Manchester United in their pursuit of Bayern Munich striker Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting.
With Robert Lewandowski leaving Bayern Munich for Barcelona during the summer transfer window, Choupo-Moting has been given a bigger role in the squad.
With ten goals already this season, the 33-year-old is somewhat emulating Lewandowski in being Bayern’s leading goalscorer, and his performances have attracted interest from Premier League clubs.

According to 90min, Tottenham are looking to rival Manchester United in their pursuit of Choupo-Moting. With Cristiano Ronaldo’s future in doubt, Manchester United are likely to need a striker in the near future, with Choupo-Moting one of the names they are considering.
Tottenham rely heavily on Harry Kane’s fitness for their success. Richarlison was signed over the summer, but the Brazilian is not a natural striker, so the Spurs currently have no backup for Kane.
Choupo-Moting could go on to rival Kane in a similar way to how he did Lewandowski before leaving Bayern, but after an impressive start to the season, Bayern may not let the striker go easily.
