Tottenham Hotspur could make a shock move for free agent Mauro Icardi to solve their goalscoring issues after the Richarlison controversy.Spurs have struggled for goals at the start of the season, with none of their top three goalscorers from last season, Richarlison, Joao Palhinha and Cristian Romero, now part of the squad.That raises a serious question about where Tottenham’s goals are going to come from, with new signing Omar Marmoush yet to find the back of the net for the Lilywhites despite getting some big chances to do so.De Zerbi has backed Dominic Solanke to get 15 goals this season if he can stay fit, but according to reports, Spurs are looking towards the free agent market to fix the problem.Photo by Ahmad Mora/Getty ImagesAnother journalist confirms Tottenham are involved in Mauro Icardi raceA couple of days ago, a report from Italy claimed that Tottenham are among the clubs leading the race for Icardi, who is a free agent after his contract with Galatasaray ran out in June.Journalist Giulio Cardone has now also confirmed that Spurs are involved in the race for the 33-year-old striker, who is also being assessed by Lazio.Cardone told Radiosei (as relayed by Lazio News 24): “Tottenham are also currently interested in Icardi, while Lazio have already made their assessments and made a decision. If Pinamonti and Noslin fail to deliver, then new scenarios could open up. The long break could represent an opportunity for free agents, but also for clubs looking for opportunities on the market.”Could Icardi be a short-term fix for Spurs?Tottenham may view the Argentine as a short-term fix until the end of the season, given that Richarlison has been frozen out.However, one would think that Icardi will likely demand a multi-year contract and a project where he is the first choice, which is unlikely at Spurs.Besides, there are already suggestions that Tottenham could reignite their interest in Eli Junior Kroupi in January, which is why a move for Icardi appears unlikely.READ MORE: Tottenham and Aston Villa combined XI based on this season, with Nicolas Jackson up frontThe post Source reveals what Tottenham are thinking about Mauro Icardi free agent option appeared first on Spurs Web.
