"I think he'll probably have to take a wage cut. That's the reality. If he wants to come back to the Premier League, and, of course, people will talk about the World Cup coming up, then all that is on the player. That's the player's side of it, it's pretty clear that he probably has to take a wage cut if he wants to come back to England."
"I think, again, if I look at, you know, of those three, Spurs, West Ham, or Everton, they've all they're all kind of coming at that with different reasons if you like. Probably, you would say Spurs will be the front-runners financially from an affordability point of view, and then I'll probably say Everton and then West Ham in that order."
Tottenham need a striker and may add one in January, with Ivan Toney among identified targets. Toney joined Al-Ahli in August 2024 but could return to England in the coming weeks. West Ham and Everton have also shown interest in the forward. Tottenham are seen as the financial frontrunners to complete a deal, followed by Everton and then West Ham in terms of affordability. The player will probably need to accept a wage cut to return to the Premier League. Final decisions will depend on how much each club wants the player and risk tolerance.
