# Tottenham: Journalist says Spurs ‘particularly’ want Ruslan Malinovskyi

**[Tottenham Hotspur](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/) are ‘particularly’ in the hunt for Atalanta forward Ruslan Malinovskyi before this summer’s deadline, according to reporter Ignazio Genuardi.**

### The Lowdown: Spurs keeping busy?

The Lilywhites [remain linked](https://twitter.com/IgnazioGenuardi/status/1560694191373447170) with potential further additions despite sealing seven major signings already, with Ivan Perisic, Fraser Forster, Yves Bissouma, Richarlison, Clement Lenglet, Djed Spence and Destiny Udogie putting pen to paper in N17.

Spurs are apparently still in the hunt for AS Roma star [Nicolo Zaniolo](https://www.tuttojuve.com/altre-notizie/jacobelli-zaniolo-dipende-dal-tottenham-611039), for example, with an attacking midfield player seemingly on the agenda for manager Antonio Conte.

The north London side remain unbeaten so far this season after their latest victory, a 1-0 home win over Wolves on Saturday, but sporting director Fabio Paratici doesn’t appear to be done in the transfer market.

### The Latest: Tottenham ‘particularly’ eye Malinovskyi…

Taking to social media in sharing an update, Genuardi backs that Spurs have cast their eyes on Ukraine international Malinovskyi.

The reporter [explains](https://twitter.com/IgnazioGenuardi/status/1560694191373447170) that the 29-year-old has a ‘preference’ of moving to the Premier League, with Tottenham ‘particularly interested’ in signing the forward.

### The Verdict: Get it done?

Having scored [73 club career goals](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ruslan-malinovskyi/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/207877) in total, Malinovskyi has also stood out as a key threat for Atalanta in recent years.

According to [WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/300/Archive/Italy-Atalanta?stageId=19982), the attacker ranked in the Nerazzurri’s top five when it comes to attempts at goal, key passes made and completed dribbles per 90 in the 2021/22 Serie A campaign.

He also earned praise from members of the media for his ‘[stunning left foot](https://twitter.com/Buntingfootball/status/1492972362853142529)‘ and [long-range shooting technique](https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjHpd_axtf5AhWzolwKHYHrCaYQFnoECAoQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fbreakingthelines.com%2Fplayer-analysis%2Fplayer-analysis-ruslan-malinovskyi%2F&usg=AOvVaw2xZVuG389ymalJHyfKc8Ro) at times, which suggests that he would be a real asset under Conte at Spurs.
