Tottenham Hotspur are continuing to monitor a prolific French striker, but they face competition for his services from a Premier League side as well as two other European clubs.Thomas Frank has hinted that Richarlison might stay at Tottenham, but that has not stopped speculation linking various number nines with a move to Spurs.One man who has been mooted as a target for Tottenham since the start of the summer is Rennes star Arnaud Kalimuendo, who scored 18 goals and provided four assists across all competitions last season.Some sources have claimed over recent weeks that Tottenham would have to pay £26m to land Kalimuendo, but a new update from France suggested at least three other clubs also want the 23-year-old.Photo by JEAN-FRANCOIS MONIER/AFP via Getty ImagesTottenham are facing intense competition for Arnaud KalimuendoRMC Sport have now revealed that the race for the Rennes star is now heating up, with several clubs around the continent showing interest in his services.While the outlet confirms that Tottenham are fans of Kalimuendo, it is revealed that Spurs have to see off competition from Villarreal, RB Leipzig, and Nottingham Forest to land the player.The report also warns that more clubs could soon enter the race for the centre-forward, raising the possibility that he could become one of the most hotly contested signings of the summer.It is revealed that Rennes are ready to sell the Frenchman for a fee of around €30m-€35m (£26m-£30.3m), and they have already started looking for a replacement, which suggests that they expect him to leave.Who are the other strikers Tottenham are looking at?Tottenham were credited with an interest in Yoane Wissa a few weeks ago, but over the last week, several sources have claimed that Spurs’ interest in the Brentford star has cooled.Over the last few days, some sources have claimed that Tottenham could be handed a chance to sign Randal Kolo Muani as the PSG star’s move to Juventus has now stalled.However, one would think that Spurs’ move for a number nine would ultimately depend on the future of Richarlison, who is allegedly keen to stay in North London.READ MORE: Tottenham loan exciting youngster to the same club for second season in a rowThe post Tottenham locked in four-way transfer fight for £26m striker, as Nottingham Forest rival appeared first on Spurs Web.
