Paco Alcacer could prove to be a decent candidate for Tottenham Hotspur's striker hunt in the event that their Willian Jose bid collapses. The Borussia Dortmund forward is currently out of favour at Signal Iduna Park following the arrival of Erling Braut Haaland from RB Salzburg and is tipped for a departure from the club.

The Spaniard has scored 23 goals in 32 league appearances for the Bundesliga giants but has now been forced down the pecking order as Haaland's signing has added to Lucien Favre's already-crowded attacking roster.

The 26-year-old is said to be keen on a return to Spain but his goalscoring record is believed to have piqued Jose Mourinho's interest this winter.

The former Valencia man may not be a long-term option for the north London giants, but he could provide goalscoring prowess and positional mindfulness that Kane is known for in the opposition box. He is also considered an adept set-piece taker which could be useful following Christian Eriksen's move to Inter Milan today.

These qualities, coupled with the possibility of picking him up at a fraction of his market value, make Alcacer one of the most ideal candidates to fill the absence in Tottenham Hotspur's attacking slots for the remainder of the season.
