Tottenham Transfer Odds
Spurs made a largely unsuccessful attempt to fill the Harry Kane-shaped void in their frontline last season with club captain Son Heung-Min and Brazilian Richarlison, who yesterday ruled out a move to Saudi Arabia this summer.
It seems inevitable they will add at least one new striker in the coming days, but who would be the better signing – Solanke or Toney?
Looking at this data analysis from WhoScored.com, Solanke took less shots per 90 last season (2.9 vs Toney’s 3.2) but maintained a significantly better conversion rate (17.4% vs 7.8%).
That’s even more impressive when you consider his stats are taken from 38 appearances, while Toney only made 17 appearances due to his suspension for breaching football betting rules.
Solanke scored 17 league goals from his 38 matches, while Toney scored four times in 17. Solanke’s output was much more in line with his expected goals return (17 vs 20.47), while Toney was the bigger underperformer against the stats (4 vs 7.35).
Overall, Solanke secured the better WhoScored rating of 7.03 vs Toney’s 6.89.
