Tottenham Hotspur have set their sights on Hwang Hee-chan, highlighting his impressive goal-scoring record during his time in the Premier League. Despite initial skepticism from Spurs fans when the club was linked with the Wolves forward over the summer, Hwang has significantly improved this season, marking his best performance yet in English football with 10 goals.
According to Sky Sports, Hwang’s finishing prowess is noteworthy, surpassing former Spurs standout Harry Kane in conversion rate. Analyzing players who have scored more than 12 goals since last season, Hwang ranks third in conversion rate, netting 24.1% of his chances compared to Kane’s 23.1%.
While Kane remains the more prolific scorer overall, the statistics suggest that Hwang is more efficient in converting his opportunities, albeit potentially influenced by the variance in chances provided by their respective teams. Nonetheless, Hwang’s consistent finishing ability showcases his potential as a reliable goal scorer.
Valued at £14 million, Hwang has caught the eye under Gary O’Neil’s management at Wolves this season, prompting speculation about Spurs reigniting their interest in the 28-year-old. Additionally, Tottenham has been linked with Hwang’s teammate Pedro Neto, although competition for the Portuguese winger’s signature is expected to be fierce.
