Tottenham show interest in signing Atlético Madrid striker Alexander Sorloth

Tottenham Hotspur have set their sights on Alexander Sorloth, with the Norwegian striker considering a move away from Atlético Madrid after growing frustrated with his limited role under Diego Simeone.

Spurs eye proven goalscorer

At 29, Sorloth is in the prime of his career and remains one of Europe’s most consistent finishers. He scored 23 goals for Villarreal before moving to Atlético, where he has already passed the 20-goal mark across all competitions. Tottenham see him as a player who can deliver immediate impact in the Premier League, filling a gap in Ange Postecoglou’s attacking plans.

Atlético Madrid open to talks

Despite his strong numbers, Sorloth has often been deployed in a secondary role, leading to growing dissatisfaction. Atlético’s board, aware of the situation, is willing to consider a sale if the right offer arrives. The club prefers to avoid keeping an unhappy player, especially with interest mounting from abroad.

Premier League return on the horizon?

For Sorloth, a move to Tottenham would not only mean a return to English football but also a chance to assume a more prominent role at one of the Premier League’s top clubs. Those close to the striker acknowledge that Spurs represent an attractive project.

One of the big moves of the window?

The Norwegian’s future remains undecided, but Tottenham’s push could transform his exit from Atlético into one of the standout transfers of this summer window.
