Jonathan David has been in prolific form for Lille, with his impressive performance drawing attention from several clubs. Ange Postecoglou is seeking a long-term replacement for Harry Kane, but it seems that Lille striker Jonathan David is leaning towards a move to Italy, which could impact Postecoglou’s pursuit. Tottenham had shown interest in the 24-year-old last August when Kane was negotiating a move to Bayern Munich.
However, no deal was finalized, raising speculation of a potential renewal of interest from the North London club in the upcoming transfer window. Reports suggest that Napoli has already held discussions with David’s representatives, indicating a possible move to the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium. Despite uncertainties around Champions League qualification, David appears keen on a move to Italy. Lille has set an asking price of £43 million for David, who joined the club in 2020 from Gent and has been a key player in their success.
On the international stage, David has also been impressive, scoring 26 times in 46 games for Canada. Additionally, other clubs such as Chelsea, Manchester United, and Arsenal have been linked with a move for the Nigerian.
