This transfer window appears to be a particularly pressured one, with Thomas Frank facing increasing pressure to deliver better viewing and, of course, improved results. Frank’s situation at Tottenham isn’t looking good, with the results being met with negative reactions from fans, even if they are the result of hard-fought draws. At the recent game at Bournemouth away, ‘We want our money back!’ rang out from the travelling support.
Spurs have produced a good deal of FA Cup legends, from iconic players to unforgettable nights at Wembley. Some are still discussed to this very day. In much the same way that fans can stock up on LoL RP on Eneba to chase virtual glory in League of Legends, Spurs supporters still chase the memories of those Cup triumphs.

Targets for Tottenham have been well discussed, and the supporters are desperately looking for action. One name in the frame is Viktor Gyökeres. Spurs are closely monitoring the 24-year-old German international forward/winger. Multiple reliable sources, including Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg, report that Schade is “one to watch” ahead of a potential summer 2026 move, especially after the World Cup.
Current Club & Contract: Schade plays for Brentford, where he joined permanently in summer 2023 (after an initial loan) on a five-year deal running until 2028.
Valuation: Brentford are demanding around €50-60 million (£42-52m approx.) if he leaves. The club wants to extend his contract and keep him, but a departure looks increasingly likely given his form and interest from bigger clubs.
Performance: Schade has stepped up significantly this season, with strong goal contributions in the Premier League (he’s scored hat-tricks and shown blistering pace, versatility across the front line, and goal threat). He’s also a Germany international with a chance to feature at the 2026 World Cup.
Why THFC?: Frank knows Schade “inside out” from their time together at Brentford. Spurs see him as a dynamic addition to boost their attack — offering pace, flair, and versatility that could upgrade options on the flanks or centrally. This reunion angle makes it a natural fit.
No deal is imminent — this is mostly summer window speculation right now. January 2026 moves seem unlikely as Brentford aren’t under pressure to sell mid-season, but the links have been persistent since late 2025. Other clubs (like Borussia Dortmund in the past) have been mentioned, but Tottenham are among the most prominently linked.
