SHOCKING SPURS BOMBSHELL: Forget Kolo-Muani – Tottenham Just Unearthed a “SECRET SUPERSTAR” So Explosive He’ll BENCH Solanke FOREVER and Rewrite Premier League History!
Tottenham Hotspur produced arguably their most dominant performance of the season on Tuesday night, cruising to a 4-0 victory over Copenhagen in the Champions League despite being reduced to ten men.
Thomas Frank’s side were at their attacking best, creating a season-high eight ‘big chances’ throughout the game — a clear indicator of their growing offensive fluidity and confidence.
The standout moment came from Micky van de Ven, who scored a stunning solo goal after running the length of the pitch to bag his sixth strike of the campaign, making him Spurs’ top scorer in all competitions.
Randal Kolo Muani led the line as Spurs’ number nine and although he didn’t score, he provided the assist for Wilson Odobert’s goal.
The PSG loanee is still waiting for his first goal for the club after seven appearances and has missed three ‘big chances’, per Sofascore, which raises questions about his long-term place in the team once Dominic Solanke returns from injury.
Why Dominic Solanke may be on borrowed time at Spurs
Solanke has been sidelined since August with an ankle injury but is expected back before the end of November.
When fit, he will face competition from both Richarlison and Kolo Muani for a starting spot.
Tottenham made Solanke their record signing for £65m in the summer of 2024, but he has yet to justify the price tag.
The striker scored 16 goals in 45 appearances last season, a respectable total, yet his Premier League form was underwhelming — underperforming his xG by two goals and missing three more ‘big chances’ than he scored.
Averaging a goal every 245 minutes, his return has not represented value for money.
According to Football Insider, Frank has grown frustrated with Solanke’s inconsistency and fitness issues, which could jeopardize his future in North London.
Why Mason Melia could end Solanke’s Spurs career
Tottenham’s next striking prospect, Mason Melia, will join the club in January from St Patrick’s Athletic after a deal was agreed earlier this year.
Frank must decide whether to integrate the Irish teenager into the senior squad for the second half of the season.
With Kolo Muani and Richarlison already available, Melia’s arrival could open the door for Spurs to part ways with Solanke.
Despite being only 18, Melia has already made nearly 100 senior appearances, scoring 25 goals for St Patrick’s.
His 13 league goals this year — averaging one every 199 minutes — compare favorably with Solanke’s record.
Described as “relentless” and a “hidden gem” by analyst Ben Mattinson, Melia’s composure and maturity suggest he could quickly adapt to the Premier League.
Tottenham clearly believe in his potential, and if he impresses Frank upon arrival, it could spell the end of Solanke’s Tottenham career.
