Tottenham Hotspur have a lot of work to do in the summer transfer window.
The North Londoners are set to finish in the bottom half of the Premier League table. That is not good enough, but that’s where they are right now.
Ange Postecoglou is expected to leave Tottenham in the summer – irrespective of whether he wins the Europa League or not.
Fabio Paratici has agreed to return to Spurs after his 30-month ban, and he will call the shots in the transfer market once the window opens.
Jamie O’Hara has now offered a suggestion for the Italian and the other decision-makers at the club.
Jamie O’Hara says he would sign Jamie Vardy for Tottenham
Jamie Vardy has announced that he will be leaving Leicester City this summer.
The Foxes icon has been at the King Power for over a decade now. He is an absolute legend of the club, but following their relegation, he has decided to part ways at the end of his contract in July.
Vardy, who is 38 now, is in the twilight of his career, and it will be interesting to see where he will end up this summer. He could choose to stay in England or move abroad to the MLS or the Saudi Pro League.
O’Hara, who has watched Tottenham all season, believes Vardy will have plenty of suitors and has gone as far as saying that he would take him at Spurs.
The pundit believes that Vardy, even at 38, is better than two of his side’s attackers – Wilson Odobert and Mathys Tel.
O’Hara said on talkSPORT: “I think he’s not going to be short of suitors, genuinely.
“He has scored eight Premier League goals this season in a terrible Leicester side. He has played a lot of football. He still looks sharp, looks fit, he’s still quick, it doesn’t look like he’s slowing down.
“I’m putting it out there, he’s better than Mathys Tel and Odobert at Tottenham.
“I’d have him at Tottenham. I would. Not to play very week, but as a backup to Solanke. Who’s our backup? We ain’t got anyone.”

Should Tottenham sign Jamie Vardy?
Tottenham’s summer completely depends on what happens in the Europa League.
If Spurs get past Bodo/Glimt and win the final, they will be back in the Champions League and will be able to attract and afford top players.
If they fail to win the Europa League, Spurs will not be in any European competition next season, and that will have an impact on their transfer plan.
In an ideal world, Vardy at 38 is not an option for a top club, but if Spurs need to spend their budget on other areas of the pitch, the Englishman on a free transfer for a year wouldn’t be the worst idea.
We all know that Daniel Levy loves a bargain, and Vardy would definitely be one.
As O’Hara said above, he could play as a backup at Tottenham, and he is more than capable of scoring a few goals off the bench.
