Tottenham and Manchester United have been offered the chance to sign Borussia Dortmund striker Paco Alcacer,

Both clubs are set to be without their main striker for some time.

Harry Kane is out until April for Spurs and Marcus Rashford will miss three months with a stress fracture in his back.

Alcacer has netted seven goals this season from 15 appearances; although he has only started six times in the Bundesliga.

The report suggests that the striker is open to the idea of leaving the German outfit this month and has been offered to the duo of clubs.

Haaland had a debut to remember for Dortmund on Saturday, scoring a hat-trick within 23 minutes of coming onto the field as a substitute.

Tottenham would surely welcome the chance to sign a player boasting the pedigree of Alcacer.

Jose Mourinho’s team haven’t scored for three games in the Premier League and are struggling in Kane’s absence.

The 26-year-old has scored goals wherever he has played and it will be interesting to see if either top-flight club takes Dortmund up on their offer.

News of Alcacer potentially being offered out has been met with glee among some Tottenham fans. Others aren’t quite so keen.

The reaction is certainly undecided among the fan base looking at social media.

Here is a selection of tweets following news that Spurs might turn their attention to Alcacer:
