Lazio face competition from Tottenham Hotspur for Dinamo Zagreb defender Sergi Dominguez, claims Sportitalia transfer pundit Alfredo Pedullà.

The centre-back just celebrated his 21st birthday last month and has represented Spain at various youth levels.

A product of the Barcelona youth academy, he was sold to Dinamo Zagreb last summer at a cost of €1.2m.

He made 41 competitive appearances this season, also contributing two goals and four assists from defence.

Lazio want Sergi Dominguez

It is reported that Lazio have been tracking Sergi Dominguez for a while and were readying an offer worth circa €5m after intensive talks with the player’s entourage.

However, with Spurs entering the fray, that price tag is already soaring and likely to be well beyond Lazio’s capabilities.

The Aquile are set to reboot their squad for incoming coach Gennaro Gattuso, as Maurizio Sarri has walked away for a new adventure with Atalanta.

Tottenham Hotspur secured Premier League safety on Sunday night following a 1-0 victory over Everton.

It was Spurs’ third league win at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in 2025-26 having lost 10 times at home and drawn the other six games.

Fortunately, it proved enough in the end to keep the North London club up despite West Ham United also winning their final game of the season.

Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi is now preparing for a squad overhaul and has claimed that Spurs only have around 12 players good enough to stay beyond this summer.

They currently have 28 players on their books and the Italian believes that at least 16 of them should leave.

“From tonight we have to start to organise and to build a new team,” De Zerbi said after the game.

“We have not to change too many players. We have 10, 11, 12 players good enough to stay, good enough as players and especially as people.

“Then we have to complete the squad with first-level players. First-level because we suffer too much. The fans, the club, the board, the players, they suffer too much.

“We are Tottenham and we can’t suffer like this until the last second of the last game to stay up. And I will be stronger. I don’t want to decide alone because football is a group, the sporting director, scouting, CEO, but my target is finished, to stay up. My target now is to start pre-season with the team in my dream, in my head.”

ASSESSING THE TOTTENHAM SQUAD

While safety should see Spurs retain some key players, there are some who will look to leave the club this summer and here is a look at the 12 who could remain after the transfer window and the 16 likely to leave.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will be no place for the faint-hearted on Sunday, with the club's Premier League status on the line against Everton.

Spurs need only a point to survive, but the air will be heavy with nervous tension as Robert de Zerbi's side attempt to avoid their first relegation from the top tier since 1977.

If Spurs did go down, it would be the biggest relegation of a generation - perhaps since Manchester United were relegated to the old Second Division in 1974.

The loss at Chelsea on Tuesday meant Spurs' fate would not be decided until the final day in front of their own fans – but this may not be the advantage it initially seems.

Spurs' form has been dreadful all season, but this has especially been the case at home, where their record is embarrassingly bad.

They have won only two league games at home this season, the last coming on 6 December under the management of Thomas Frank, when they beat his former club Brentford 2-0.

Even under De Zerbi, they have been unable to crack the code as they have drawn against Brighton and Leeds United.

And in Everton, they face a team whose own home form has been poor but markedly better on their travels, where they have enjoyed wins at places such as Aston Villa and Manchester United.

David Moyes' team have nothing to play for having seen their own European ambitions evaporate, but they do not give out free passes, as proved when they almost beat Manchester City at Hill Dickinson Stadium recently.

The good news for Spurs is that they reach his defining point with their destiny in their own hands – but that is unlikely to make it any less nail-biting for a fanbase that has suffered so much in a miserable season.

Everton travel to Tottenham Hotspur this weekend for the final fixture of the 2025-26 Premier League season.

Last weekend’s deflating defeat to Sunderland at Hill Dickinson Stadium leaves the Toffees with little to play for, with a top-half finish the best possible outcome after European dreams evaporated in recent weeks.

David Moyes’s men have gone six without a win in the Premier League, a rotten run-in that has undone much of the good work achieved until the spring.

Late goals have been a problem, with Everton conceding seven times beyond the 75-minute mark across the last five league games. It’s perhaps an indication of fatigue, having used only 22 players in the Premier League this season. That is Everton’s joint-lowest number of players ever used in a Premier League campaign, alongside 1993/94 and 2004/05.

For Spurs, Sunday’s game is of huge significance. Lose, and the North Londoners will be relegated for the first time since 1977, should West Ham beat Leeds at the London Stadium. A draw should be enough for survival, given a vastly superior goal difference.

Everton have won one of the last 10 meetings with Spurs across all competitions, and have not beaten this weekend’s opponents in the capital since September 2020.

Team News

Everton team news

Idrissa Gana Gueye was again absent for the defeat to Sunderland and Moyes has said the Senegal midfielder is 50-50 to return at Spurs, in what could be a farewell appearance.

Speaking in Friday's pre-match press conference, Moyes said: "[Gana] has been back on the grass. I'd say there's probably a 50-50 chance he could be involved. We'll know a bit more once we've trained and seen him over the next couple of days.

"He's not trained with the team, at the moment, so that's where we're at with him."

The 36-year-old is out of contract this summer and has not made enough appearances to trigger an automatic extension.

A decision on his future is expected imminently, though Gueye will soon travel to the World Cup, having been included in the Senegal squad, alongside Iliman Ndiaye, for this summer’s tournament.

Jack Grealish and Jarrad Branthwaite will again play no part in the season finale.

Tottenham team news

Tottenham captain Cristian Romero has caused a stir with the centre-back set to attend the final of the Argentine championship between former club Belgrano and River Plate this weekend, instead of Spurs’ potentially decisive relegation clash. The Spurs skipper, who is out injured, is expected to leave in the summer.

Roberto De Zerbi continues to deal with vast injury issues, including the absences of Xavi Simons (ACL), Dejan Kulusevski (knee), and Mohammed Kudus (hamstring). Dominic Solanke missed the midweek defeat to Chelsea but could return on Sunday.

Everton Predicted Lineup (4-2-3-1)

How to Watch Tottenham vs Everton

The game will be televised on Sky Sports Premier League in the UK. All can follow updates here, on the ToffeeWeb Live Forum.

Tottenham have announced the signing of West Ham forward Martinez, who will join the London club when the summer window opens.

The 24-year-old Germany international joined West Ham in 2024, after eight years at Eintracht Frankfurt. She initially spent the first half of the 2024-25 season on loan at Freiburg before returning to the English top flight in January 2025.

Scoring on her debut in the Women’s Super League, she finished that campaign with 10 goals in 12 league appearances, making her the second-highest scorer in the competition.

She will have big boots to fill after Bethany England left Spurs at the end of the season. She has been Spurs’ top scorer over the past three years.

Martinez said: “I’m delighted to be a Spurs player. This is the perfect next step for my career and also for me to improve as a player.

“The Club has a really good squad and a good idea of how they want to play – that’s why I’m so happy to be here.

“When I spoke with Martin [Ho, head coach], I really felt confident. He wants to help me improve as a player, to bring my strengths to the team and I know he will help me score goals, too.”

Martinez has already made over 100 appearances for Germany, making her senior debut against Spain in November 2025 in the UEFA Women’s Nations League final.

Ho was full of praise for the upcoming signing, saying: “Shekiera is a player we have admired for some time, so we are delighted she has chosen to come to Tottenham Hotspur, especially with the level of significant interest there was in her.

“That shows not only the quality she already has, but also the belief across the game in what she can become. She has already shown, both in Germany and here in the WSL, that she can impact games at a high level, and what excites us most is the level she can still reach.

“She is a forward with real presence, intelligent movement and a strong instinct in the box. She can stretch teams, link play and give us a real threat across the front line. Her profile gives us different solutions in the final third, both as a goalscorer and as someone who can help the team connect and create chances.”

Tottenham Hotspur defender Cristian Romero will not be in attendance for the Premier League game against Everton on Sunday, according to South American football expert Tim Vickery.

Spurs will be desperate to pick up all three points against the Toffees at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium club in their final game of 2025-26.

A victory will keep the North London club up, but Romero will not be in England as he is currently in Argentina to watch the Argentine Primera Division final between River Plate and his old club Belgrano.

The defender is currently injured following a knee injury in a 1-0 defeat at Sunderland last month.

Romero has been at some Spurs games since then but has opted to head home and could have played his last game for the club.

“He will be at the final of the Argentine Championship between Belgrano and River Plate,” Vickery said on talkSPORT today.

Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi would have given the Spurs captain permission to leave, but it could also be the biggest hint that his future lies elsewhere.

He has been tipped to leave the club even if they stay up, and he will not be short of suitors in the summer transfer window.

Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky will undergo surgery once the season ends and will miss the World Cup, according to Spurs insider Szy Excl. The Tottenham account and insider has recently become famous for breaking some major news about the North London side and the latest updates around the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium club. They have proven to be a trusted source concerning all things Spurs and have claimed this morning that Kinsky is set to go under the knife.

The 23-year-old has been in goal for Tottenham since Guglielmo Vicario got ruled out through injury in March, and he has managed to restore his confidence after a calamitous performance against Atletico Madrid. Spurs have won two and drawn two of the six league games Kinsky has played since taking over from the Italian. He is set to play against Everton on Sunday as the North London club eye survival, and manager Roberto De Zerbi will be confident of what the goalie can do in their most important game of the season.

Two clubs battling to stay clear of relegation will lock horns as Tottenham Hotspur and Leeds United face off in a mouth-watering bottom-half battle.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will form the backdrop for this battle of the Whites, with Tottenham handed a crucial chance to bolster their chances of survival.

Roberto De Zerbi’s side have been building momentum over the past few weeks and are heading into this game on the back of consecutive wins for the first time since August.

Tottenham’s most recent 2-1 victory over Aston Villa maintained their one-point lead above the relegation zone. West Ham United’s defeat to Arsenal now opens the door for Spurs to extend their lead.

A win against Leeds later tonight will take Tottenham four points clear of danger with two games left to play, giving them the upper hand in the relegation dogfight with West Ham.

De Zerbi’s decision to take the Tottenham job with the club in turmoil raised plenty of eyebrows. But it now looks like Tottenham hit a home run.

Tonight’s contest gives Spurs a decent chance to win a third consecutive Premier League game for the first time this season. If they can get over the line, they’ll all but certainly secure their top-flight status.

Tottenham’s recent form has lifted the mood in the dressing room, and De Zerbi’s side will be chomping at the bit to bolster their survival when they welcome Leeds.

The only concern heading into this game is that Tottenham have collected just 11 points from 17 Premier League games on home turf, failing to win any of their last nine (D3, L6).

How Tottenham could line up

De Zerbi could make just one change from the side that beat Villa last time out. Antonin Kinsky should remain in goal with Pedro Porro, Kevin Danso, Micky van de Ven, and Destiny Udogie in defence.

The only tweak to the line-up could see Lucas Bergvall return to the midfield, with the £8.5 million ace set to start his first Premier League game in nearly a month.

He’ll likely step in for Rodrigo Bentancur and join Joao Palhinha in midfield, with Randal Kolo Muani, Conor Gallagher, and Mathys Tel playing behind Richarlison.

Tottenham Hotspur host Leeds United on Monday night, looking to build on their recent winning run and move further clear of the relegation zone.

Roberto De Zerbi’s men have finally found their rhythm at the perfect time. The Lilywhites enter the game following two crucial victories over Wolverhampton Wanderers and Aston Villa. These results put safety back in their own hands with three matches remaining. De Zerbi has implemented a high-pressing possession style that yields 5.3 final-third turnovers per game. Spurs must now overcome a dreadful home record to secure their Premier League status for next season.

Tottenham have won eight of their last nine league meetings against the Whites. They have also secured five consecutive victories in this fixture since May 2021. However, the hosts have lost ten home games for a second straight season. Winning today would mark three consecutive league victories for the first time since February 2025.

Tottenham team news

Guglielmo Vicario remains sidelined following surgery to repair a hernia in March. Antonin Kinsky will continue in goal after performing admirably in his absence. Dominic Solanke is expected to miss out as he recovers from a hamstring injury. That said, Richarlison and Rodrigo Bentancur are both fit to start on Monday. De Zerbi is happy with the squad’s work levels during another important week at Hotspur Way.

James Maddison may feature for his first minutes of the season from the bench. That said, several key players remain unavailable due to knee and thigh injuries. Cristian Romero, Dejan Kulusevski, and Wilson Odobert are all confirmed absentees for the visit of Leeds. Richarlison will lead the line, having averaged a goal involvement every 109 minutes recently. De Zerbi will rely on his high press to disrupt a physically imposing Leeds side.

Tottenham predicted lineup

Tottenham predicted XI: Kinsky; Porro, Danso, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Palhinha; Kolo Muani, Gallagher, Tel; Richarlison.

When will the match kick off?

The match at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium kicks off at 20:00 BST on Monday, 11 May 2026.
