Wrexham have only played one pre-season game so far this summer but have already suffered a major injury blow ahead of the new season.
Phil Parkinson will have been looking forward to the new League One campaign after winning back-to-back promotions.
Summer signings have been the focus for Wrexham fans and five deals have now been secured.
Arthur Okonkwo, Lewis Brunt, George Dobson, Callum Burton and Sebastian Revan have all been secured, adding depth in key areas of the squad.
Unfortunately, Wrexham have suffered a blow with Paul Mullin forced to undergo surgery earlier this summer.
Mullin has gone under the knife to solve back and hamstring problems and looks set to miss the whole of pre-season, possibly even the early stages of the League One campaign.
That is a nightmare situation for Wrexham and it may just push Phil Parkinson into signing another striker this summer.
Wrexham make move for Tottenham Hotspur’s Will Lankshear
Wrexham may be tempted to add another goalscorer and there have been rumours surrounding such a move.
Reports earlier in July suggested that Wrexham were interested in signing Millwall striker Tom Bradshaw.
That move hasn’t progressed and Millwall boss Neil Harris has played down all speculation surrounding a deal.
Wrexham may need to look elsewhere and a Premier League loanee may not be the worst idea.
Give Me Sport now report that Wrexham have made enquiries into a potential deal for Tottenham Hotspur talent Will Lankshear.
It’s stated that Sunderland and Hull City have also made loan moves for Lankshear, meaning Wrexham face major competition for his signature.
Tottenham secured Lankshear to a new five-year deal last weekend and are allegedly planning to loan him out.
Wrexham want to be right in the mix for Lankshear but Championship interest will be tough to fend off this summer.
Who is Wrexham target Lankshear?
Lankshear spent time in the Arsenal ranks before being let go as a youngster, paving the way for a move to Sheffield United.
Tottenham were suitably impressed and swooped to sign Lankshear in 2022, adding him to their development ranks in a deal worth up to £2.5million.
The 19-year-old has built up quite a reputation for himself at Spurs, smashing 23 goals in 23 Premier League 2 games last season.
Lankshear has been around the Tottenham first team in pre-season and scored during a 5-1 thrashing of Hearts on Wednesday night.
Tottenham may well want Lankshear to stick around until the end of pre-season, meaning Wrexham could face a wait on any deal.
Wrexham do have a number of experienced strikers though with Mullin, Ollie Palmer, Jack Marriott and Steven Fletcher potentially the perfect forwards for Lankshear to learn from.
That is something Wrexham may well pitch to Tottenham with Lankshear marking a real coup if the club can pull this one off.
