Will Lankshear’s current market value has been revealed, as the former Tottenham man is already being eyed by Premier League clubs just a few months after leaving North London.
Watching Lankshear tear up the Championship has been painful viewing for Spurs fans, particularly as Dominic Solanke and Omar Marmoush are failing to deliver the goals that Roberto De Zerbi’s side need.
The 21-year-old has already scored 15 goals in 16 matches across all competitions, including 13 in 13 in the Championship for Middlesbrough.

There are even reports that Lankshear is being considered for a call-up to the England squad, with Thomas Tuchel’s men keeping a close eye on the striker.
It emerged a couple of days ago that the Spurs academy graduate is attracting interest from Newcastle ahead of January, and his valuation has now been revealed.
Football Insider have now confirmed that the Magpies are looking to bolster their forward line over the next few windows and have set their sights on the former Spurs man.
However, the report claims that Newcastle will not be able to land Lankshear on the cheap from the Riverside Stadium.
Boro will not make a deal easy, and it is alleged that the Spurs starlet’s market value is increasing on a weekly basis, as he continues banging in the goals at an incredible rate.
Boro paid an initial fee of £10m for Lankshear, excluding add-ons, and it is suggested that his value has already tripled. The England U21 international is already valued at £30m, just four months after his departure from Hotspur Way.
Tottenham inserted a 20% sell-on clause into the Will Lankshear transfer, meaning they will either claim extra profit on a future sale, or they can claim the discount themselves.
Football Insider say that Newcastle are one of several top-flight clubs who are currently paying close attention to the former Tottenham man, with a view to making a future move.
Boro are aware of the growing interest from the Premier League in Lankshear, but they are ‘relaxed’ over his future, with the player being contracted until 2031.
The report says that the Teesside club have no intention of selling the centre-forward in January, as they eye promotion to the Premier League next season.
They are currently tied on points with Birmingham City and Stoke City at the top of the Championship table, and it is asserted that Newcastle and his other suitors may have to wait until next summer to have a shot of signing Lankshear.
