Sources: Tottenham make Dominic Solanke transfer decision

Tottenham have no plans to sell Solanke despite his poor form this season; De Zerbi retains faith in the striker and wants to strengthen attacking depth in January instead.

Tottenham Hotspur have decided against selling striker Dominic Solanke despite his recent struggles, sources have told Football Insider. The 29-year-old has scored just two goals in 10 appearances across all competitions this season, prompting fan frustration, but manager Roberto De Zerbi and the coaching staff remain convinced he can turn things around.

Solanke has been hampered by injuries since his £65 million move from Bournemouth in 2024, rarely enjoying an extended run in the team. However, Spurs believe that if they can get him fit and in form, he remains the right man to lead their attack. With Omar Marmoush the only other out-and-out striker option at the club, Tottenham's reliance on Solanke is significant. Rather than weakening their attacking options, the club plans to add depth in the January transfer window.
