Transfer deadline day is finally here. It has been a very interesting summer window for Tottenham Hotspur with plenty of frustration and also a couple of wins in the transfer market.

Heading into the final day of the window, Spurs have so far turned Kevin Danso and Mathys Tel's loan deals into permanent moves, Luka Vuskovic finally made the switch from Hajduk Split, Joao Palhinha joined on loan from Bayern Munich and Kota Takai, Mohammed Kudus and Xavi Simons secured permanent moves to N17. Johan Lange still has plenty of work to do on deadline day, with the window closing for business until January at 7pm this evening.

As important as incomings are to bolster Thomas Frank's numbers, outgoings are also needed as part of a squad refresh for the 2025/26 season. So what deals could Tottenham look to complete in the last few hours of transfer deadline day? football.london takes a look below.

New winger

Tottenham have yet to bring in a new winger to take Son Heung-min's place in the squad and that needs to happen on deadline day. Manchester City ace Savinho was heavily linked with a move to Spurs but it would appear that he will be remaining at the Etihad Stadium.

The Manchester Evening News reported on Thursday that City have ruled out selling the Brazilian. Ademola Lookman of Atalanta has been mentioned in regards to a late switch to Tottenham as he looks to depart the Italian side before this evening's cut-off point.

Bayern Munich are also keen on the 27-year-old, with a possible loan deal mooted, and Spurs will have to get one over their German counterparts if they are to secure the signing of the former Premier League winger.

New centre-back

Tottenham also require a new centre-back before 7pm, although a new winger features higher up on the priority list right now. It is still a position Spurs have to try and strengthen, however.

Frank wants cover at centre-back due to the amount of games Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven missed last season, with Radu Dragusin still in the treatment room prior to his return to training very soon. The loan departure of Vuskovic to Hamburg has reduced Tottenham's options even further in the position.

Manchester City's Manuel Akanji has been linked with a move to Tottenham in recent days.

Dane Scarlett

Dane Scarlett will be hoping to get his loan move away from the club in the final few hours of the transfer window. The striker was left out of Tottenham's pre-season tour squad to explore a loan deal but a move hasn't quite happened for him yet.

He needs to be playing every week and the hope will be that the academy graduate can secure a switch elsewhere before time runs out.

Bryan Gil

Bryan Gil clearly does not have a future at Tottenham having missed out on a squad number for the new season. The Spaniard is currently working his way back to fitness from a knee injury and that could potentially impact a possible move given it's not clear yet when he will be fit to return to the pitch.

Tottenham really cannot afford for that to be the case due to his contract status.

Yves Bissouma

Yves Bissouma will feature in the headlines on deadline day. The Mali international has dropped down the Tottenham midfield pecking order this summer following the arrival of Palhinha and it could result in a late exit.

Like Gil, Bissouma's current contract expires next summer and the club really need to part with him this window to ensure his value does not drop too much. Tottenham were last week in discussions with Galatasaray over a loan deal but the midfielder remains a Spurs player for now.

Manor Solomon

Manor Solomon was in Frank's Tottenham squad for the first time last weekend after a frustrating summer through injury. The winger gave the head coach an extra attacking option but he remained on the bench despite Spurs needing a goal against Bournemouth.

The 26-year-old is going to find regular minutes hard to come by at Tottenham and that could pave the way for a late exit on Monday. Solomon will only drop a place in the pecking order if a new winger comes in.
