Tottenham Hotspur were linked to a deal to sign Wissam Beyder in April 2020.
According to French outlet L’Equipe at the time, Spurs – then under Mauricio Pochettino – were interested in bringing him to North London.
Although a transfer for the France international was not possible, he is still a formidable striker.
Monaco’s 31-year-old striker scored twice today for Monaco, bringing his total to 22 goals across all competitions.
Ironically, his latest brace could land former Tottenham manager Mauricio pochettino in serious trouble.

That’s because he scored twice against Paris Saint-Germain in what was a 3-0 victory.
Pochettino will still win Ligue 1 Paris this season. However, this result, along with the fact that Real Madrid eliminated them earlier this month from the Champions League, puts more pressure on the 55 year-old coach.
The Parc des Princes outfit won’t be sacking Pochettino mid-season, but long term it is growing increasingly difficult to see him remain in charge.
Monaco was 10th place in Ligue 1 just before this hammering.
With Kylian Mbappe, Neymar and Lionel Messi in the squad, there’s genuinely no excuse for the former Spurs manager to lose games like this.
