Tottenham must be wary of the instant impact of Fulham’s mercurial Ryan Babel

Fulham host Tottenham Hotꦑspur on Sunday, with the W𝐆hites embroiled in a relegation battle and Spurs challenging up at the top of the table.

Although Fu🀅lham have struggled this year aga🐟inst the Premier League’s big sides, Tottenham must be wary of the instant impact of the Cottagers’ new signing Ryan Babel.

Fulham signed the mercu🃏rial at☂tacker earlier this week from Besiktas, with the 32-year-old joining on a six-month permanent deal.

Babel’s career has 🌞taken a wide number of untraditional turns after he left Liverpool, but his recent form gives Fulham reason to be optimistic.

Most notably, the winger has starred for the Dutch national team in their successful UEFA Nations League campaign. Babel bec♈ame an integral starter wh💮o contributed a goal and an assist in matches against World Cup champions France.

In addition, Babel has the opportunity to revitalise a tired-looking Fulham attack that has struggled to score goals without 💛t꧒he help of talisman Aleksandar Mitrovic.

With Spurs’ defence focused on stopping the main target of Mitrovic, space could be freed🦩 up for Babel to work his magic out wide.

Desperately in▨ need of a January boost, Fulham have turned to Ryan Babel to shake up their attack. Tottenham would do well to closely watch the new arrival on Sunday or face the D🐻utchman’s wrath.
