Tottenham have kicked of August with an intent to strengthen the squad ahead of the 25/26 Premier League season which is starting in 2 weeks time.
All transfers and rumours will be covered by VAVEL with unique articles on each deal.
Deal Agreed: Joao Palhinha
Just shy of two weeks before the UEFA Super Cup Final against Champions League Winners PSG, Tottenham have agreed a loan with an option to buy deal for Joao Palhinha. Spurs will cover all of the 30-year-olds wages until June 2026, which are expected to be around €200k a week, making the Portuguese midfielder one of the highest paid players at the club.
Fabrizio Romano has reported that the 2025 Europa League Winners will have an option to buy Palhinha for around €30m during his season long loan spell with the Lilywhites, which is seemingly just an announcement away after reports that the 30-year-old has completed his Tottenham Hotspur medical in Germany today ahead of his transfer.
The midfielder only signed for Bayern Munich a year ago in the summer of 2024 for €56m plus add ons before looking likely to return to the Premier League, and London having previously impressed whilst playing for West London side Fulham.
Palhinha only featured 24 times for The Bavarians in the 24/25 season in all competitions failing to register a single goal or assist, although his defensive qualities have caught the eye of Thomas Frank who is ready to bring him back to the Premier League.
Honours
Even though Palhinha did not have the best season in Germany, he still managed to help the German giants lift the Bundesliga for the 33rd time in their history. He also, in the summer of 2025, won the Nations League with his country Portugal beating current Euros champions Spain 5-3 on penalties. He has also won many honours at Sporting Lisbon, who he left in 2022 for his first stint in the Premier League with Fulham.
Why could this mean an exit for Spurs midfielder Yves Bissouma?
Many sources have stated that Tottenham will only sign a defensive midfielder once one has been offloaded in order to abide to registration rules in the UEFA Champions League which the Lilywhites qualified for by winning the UEFA Europa League despite finishing a concerning 17th in the Premier League.
La Gazzeta have reported that West Ham and Juventus are interested in signing Yves Bissouma with the Malian being priced around €15m-€20m - 3 years on from when Spurs signed the midfielder for around €35m. Bissouma has been a constant feature in Spurs sides since signing for the club, although some concerns on his attitude and consistency have caused the 28 year old to be heading for a potential exit this summer.
Done Deal: Mikey Moore
Having strengthened the left side of attack, with the permanent signing of Mathys Tel earlier on this window, Tottenham have allowed exciting young talent Mikey Moore go on loan to Scottish giants Rangers in a hunt for consistent first team football which was announced early this morning.
The 17 year old began to shine for Tottenham last season featuring in UEFA Europa League games, with James Maddison comedically calling him 'Neymoore' after a fantastic performance against Dutch side AZ in the group stages of the European competition.
It is a first loan for young Mikey Moore who will certainly be hoping to lift even more silverware with The Gers, who have won the Scottish Premiership a joint record of 55 times.
Rumour: Jamie Donley
Lilywhite Rose have reported that Spurs youngster Jamie Donley is heading out on loan to an unnamed EFL Championship side after Tottenham have agreed a deal for the Northern Irish international to spend a season on loan in England's second division.
The 20 year old is ready to take the next step up from EFL League One after an impressive loan spell with Leyton Orient finishing 6th before losing in the play off final to Charlton 1-0.
The attacking midfielder managed to register 8 goals and 10 assists in 42 EFL League One matches. He will be hoping to have the same sort of impact in the Championship next season.
