Tottenham Hotspur head coach Martin Ho hinted that he may yet make a few more signings ahead of the transfer deadline day next week.
In his press conference on Friday afternoon, he told reporters: “We’re always in the market and we’re still looking now in certain positions.
“I don’t want to just bring someone to the club just to fill a gap. I don’t want to bring someone to the club just for the sake of doing it in a transfer market. It’s got to be someone who’s going to give us longevity, give us a different profile. and more importantly, someone who’s going to add value to this team.
“And if we can’t find that, then I won’t bring them in. I’d rather wait till the next window.”
So far Signe Gaupset, Hanna Wijk, Matilda Nilden and Julie Blakstad have joined the club on permanent deals, with Maika Hamano coming in on loan from Chelsea.
Martin Ho: Tottenham Hotspur are in a good place
Tottenham face West Ham United this weekend, and Ho warned that his side would need to work hard.
They come in off the back of a late defeat at the hands of bottom-placed Liverpool – while the Hammers got an important win at Leicester City last time out.
“There’s no game in this league that is one that you can walk into thinking you’re going to win,” he said.
“Every league game is now competitive and you’ve seen that with some of the upsets that have happened in previous weeks. There’s teams taking points off one another that maybe people don’t expect.
“But we’re in a good place. We’re fifth in the league, 23 points. We have nine games still to go, to grow and definitely still add to the tally we have.”
And he had words of praise for a resurgent West Ham under new head coach Rita Guarino.
“She’s given them definitely a lot more organisation and stability. They’re very well drilled, you can see that, and Rita was very known for that when she was in Italy.
“So we know it’s going to be a tough game and we have to go there with the intention to win the game as we always do, but we need to find ways to break down a really organised and resilient block.”
