Tottenham Eye Shock Move to Sign £100m Star From Bitter Rivals - GiveMeSport
Description

Tottenham Hotspur are eyeing a shock summer move to sign West Ham United forward Jarrod Bowen, according to Claret & Hugh.

Spurs have reportedly earmarked the England international as a transfer target amid West Ham’s difficult season under Graham Potter, as they sit just 17th in the Premier League table with five games to go.

The Hammers may struggle to keep some of their biggest stars as a result, with Mohamed Kudus now emerging as a target for Saudi Arabian clubs and Bowen attracting interest from North London.

The 28-year-old has over five years left on his long-term West Ham deal, which runs until June 2030.

Spurs Considering Jarrod Bowen Move

Several West Ham stars could leave this summer

According to a Claret & Hugh insider, West Ham could end up losing several first-team stars this summer, including Bowen, who is now targeted by Spurs:

“Bowen seems dedicated to West Ham, but if he sees Paqueta and Kudus leave without anyone decent coming in, maybe he’d be tempted?

“West Ham might struggle again next season—and a lot of players could want out.”

“I think Spurs are interested and will make changes in the summer.”

Bowen, praised as a ‘club legend’, has been a fan favourite ever since he joined West Ham from Hull City in 2020 and led the club to Europa Conference League glory in 2023, scoring the winner in the final.

The 28-year-old has been a regular this season under both Julen Lopetegui and Potter, making 31 appearances across all competitions, scoring 10 goals and providing seven assists.

He was linked with a London Stadium departure last summer, before West Ham issued a hands-off warning and placed a £100m price tag on the Englishman.

Bowen has won 16 England caps to date and started in their second game under Thomas Tuchel last month, a 3-0 win over Latvia.

Jamie O’Hara Backs Surprise Manager to Replace Postecoglou at Tottenham

Jamie O’Hara Backs Surprise Manager to Replace Postecoglou at Tottenham - GiveMeSport
Description

Former Tottenham Hotspur Jamie O'Hara has voiced his pleasure at the fact that former Spurs midfielder and current Burnley boss Scott Parker has been touted with the north London hotseat - stating that he would like his former teammate to take over from Ange Postecoglou in the summer.

The Australian gaffer has had a horror show in the Premier League this season, with their home loss against Nottingham Forest on Monday marking a record-eighth defeat on home soil, their highest since the competition began in 1992. That has seen him tipped for the exit door, and although other managers have been linked, Parker is the latest to have been touted for a move to the capital.

O'Hara 'Would Like' Scott Parker at Tottenham Hotspur

Parker's stock has never been higher, having secured Premier League promotion with Burnley on Monday after a 2-1 win over Sheffield United - his third in three seasons in the competition, having dragged Fulham and Bournemouth over the line.

And O'Hara, who played with Parker in his time at Craven Cottage in the latter stages of their careers, claimed that he'd like Parker at Tottenham - having been a 'brilliant captain' - though he did warn about the move potentially being too early. O'Hara said on talkSPORT:

“Now, this is interesting, it says Ange is set for a summer exit as Spurs keep tabs on Parker. I think I’d like Scott Parker. I think I’d like Scott Parker at Tottenham.

"There’s something about him, I’ve worked with Scott, I’ve been in the dressing room with Scott, he’s a top bloke, a brilliant captain, his football I like, his identity I like. Is it a step too far early doors? Maybe, but maybe he needs a platform like Tottenham.

“I think he’d be alright, I wouldn’t mind it.”

Tottenham's success this season will depend on their all-important Europa League campaign, which will see them enter the Champions League next season and win a piece of silverware for the first time in 17 years.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Ange Postecoglou has won 44 of his 93 games as Tottenham Hotspur boss.

If they can progress past Norwegian outfit Bodo/Glimt at the semi-final stage - before potentially taking on Manchester United or Athletic Bilbao in the final at Bilbao's stadium, San Mames - it could still see Postecoglou gone, according to reports.

Exclusive: Tottenham Consider Three 'Elite-Level' Managers to Replace Postecoglou

Exclusive: Tottenham Consider Three 'Elite-Level' Managers to Replace Postecoglou - GiveMeSport
Description

Tottenham Hotspur board members have discussed the possibility of attempting to lure Jurgen Klopp, Bayer Leverkusen head coach Xabi Alonso or Real Madrid chief Carlo Ancelotti to Hotspur Way as current boss Ange Postecoglou's successor, GIVEMESPORT sources have revealed.

Although Spurs have reached the Europa League semi-finals after showing plenty of ambition in the transfer market less than 12 months ago, with Dominic Solanke becoming the most expensive signing in the north Londoners' history thanks to sealing a £65million switch from Bournemouth in August, an underwhelming domestic campaign has led to calls for change.

Greek-Australian tactician Postecoglou is expected to walk away from the Tottenham hot-seat regardless of whether he ends their lengthy trophy drought by enjoying continental glory, resulting in chairman Daniel Levy and other influential figures behind the scenes identifying potential replacements.

Big-Name May Succeed Postecoglou at Spurs

Key decision-makers want to show ambition in manager search

Tottenham are considering Klopp, Alonso and Ancelotti as potential replacements for Postecoglou, according to GMS sources, after the trio of elite-level managers have been floated as options when key decision-makers have shown determination to pinpoint ambitious targets before fully committing to earmarking a frontrunner.

Spurs, who have an obligation to buy Kevin Danso for £20.9million at the end of his initial loan switch from Lens, will only be involved in a continental competition next term if they win the Europa League and suffered their 18th top flight defeat of the campaign when Nottingham Forest clinched all three points earlier this week.

GMS sources have been informed that Tottenham want to be bold and show they mean business after deciding to plan for a future without Postecoglou, leading to Klopp, Alonso and Ancelotti being spoken about internally even though it has been acknowledged that it will be difficult to persuade them to take charge.

The north Londoners have a host of crucial decisions to make in the coming weeks, including whether to take advantage of an option to keep Mathys Tel for £45million thanks to the terms agreed with Bayern Munich in February, and they are leaning towards having a new figure in the dugout heading into next term.

Tottenham have discussed Andoni Iraola, Marco Silva and Oliver Glasner - of Bournemouth, Fulham and Crystal Palace respectively - as credible candidates to succeed Postecoglou, GMS sources have learned, but they do not want to restrict their search to current Premier League managers and are willing to target more high-profile names.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Ange Postecoglou has guided Tottenham Hotspur to 44 victories from his 93 matches at the helm

Levy Refuses to Rule Out Return of Pochettino

Chairman aware of what it would take to land 53-year-old tactician

GMS sources have been told that Tottenham have not ruled out offering Mauricio Pochettino an opportunity to return to familiar surroundings as lines of communication have remained open with the United States' head coach and Levy is fully aware of the conditions required to seal a reunion.

The 53-year-old guided Spurs to 160 wins from 293 matches during his initial spell at the helm, along with a Champions League final, and the capital club have refused to shut down suggestions that they could make a move despite their pursuit being complicated as he prepares for a World Cup on home soil.

Postecoglou is expected to have his Tottenham reign come to an end at the season's climax, with GMS sources understanding that there is a strong possibility that he will leave by mutual agreement, and Levy is undeterred by the complexity of attempting to appoint a big-name replacement ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.

Spurs are still scouring the market for reinforcements despite uncertainty over who will be in charge when the transfer window reopens, with GMS sources recently revealing that Leeds United teenager Harry Gray has been scouted before potentially being handed the chance to link-up with brother Archie in the capital.

Tottenham Want £300,000-a-Week Forward After Shock U-Turn - GiveMeSport
Description

Tottenham Hotspur are showing interest in a summer move for Manchester United outcast Marcus Rashford, journalist Steve Kay has revealed.

The Lilywhites are believed to be keen on the £300k-a-week England international’s arrival if Aston Villa decide against signing him on a permanent deal once his loan expires.

Rashford is expected to leave Old Trafford in the upcoming transfer window and would reportedly arrive in North London as a long-term replacement for Heung-min Son.

Villa have an option to make his move permanent for £40m after the season, but have yet to decide whether to pursue a deal.

Tottenham Eyeing Marcus Rashford

Amid his impressive Aston Villa spell

According to Kay, Tottenham are keeping tabs on Rashford’s situation after opting against a deal for him during the January transfer window.

Spurs instead bolstered their frontline with Bayern Munich youngster Mathys Tel, who could join permanently after the season as the North London club hold an option to buy.

Rashford, praised as ‘electric’, has enjoyed an upturn in form under Unai Emery in recent months, scoring four goals and providing six assists in 17 appearances for Villa.

He also netted in their 2-1 loss at Manchester City on Tuesday, his fifth Premier League goal contribution for Villa since joining.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Rashford has made 297 Premier League appearances, scoring 89 goals and providing 52 assists.

Tottenham are anticipating a busy summer window amid their historically poor Premier League campaign, but are first expected to resolve Ange Postecoglou’s future.

The Australian tactician is expected to depart North London after the season, even if Spurs win the Europa League and qualify for the Champions League.

Tottenham sit 16th in the Premier League table, having won just once in their last six games.

Tottenham Add ‘Record-Breaking’ Boss to Postecoglou Replacement Shortlist

Tottenham Add ‘Record-Breaking’ Boss to Postecoglou Replacement Shortlist - GiveMeSport
Description

Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for Burnley boss and former midfielder Scott Parker should Ange Postecoglou leave after a horror campaign in the Premier League - with the Englishman having taken the Clarets up from the Championship after a record-breaking season at Turf Moor.

Parker's side have gone 31 games unbeaten in the league, breaking a new club record, and should they avoid defeat in their final two games of the campaign, it would match the Championship's 33-game record - leading to the former England midfielder being highly-heralded by those in east Lancashire. And that could see him make the move back to the capital to replace the faltering Aussie, who may leave regardless of continental success.

Report: Tottenham 'Admire' Scott Parker

Their former star has done wonders with Burnley this season

The report by the Daily Mail states that Postecoglou is likely to leave Tottenham in the summer, regardless of whether the north London club win the Europa League or not over the coming months - with Tottenham set to carry out a wide-ranging overhaul of their operations.

Another home loss in the Premier League means that Spurs have lost eight home games for the first time in a single season in the competition's history, and they sit just one point ahead of 17th-placed West Ham United in the table, with just five games to go.

As a result, names such as Bournemouth's Andoni Iraola and Fulham's Marco Silva have been linked; however, the report further states that Parker has admirers at the club after his achievements as a manager in the Championship.

Parker played for Tottenham for two years after joining from West Ham back in 2011, registering 63 appearances for the club before departing for Fulham at the age of 33. He was well-liked by supporters, and returned to the club's academy coaching setup for a season before joining the Cottagers as a first-team coach.

Iraola remains more suited to the attacking football that Postecoglou has tried to adorn upon the club in his spell in north London, but Tottenham have been leaky, with League Cup games seeing them concede three goals or more on two occasions. Meanwhile, Parker's successes at Turf Moor have seen Burnley concede just 15 goals in their 44 league games, landing them promotion with two games to go and the best defensive record in Championship history.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Scott Parker has lost just 21 of his 138 games in the Championship.

Whether Tottenham will opt for a manager with little-to-no evidence of succeeding in the Premier League remains to be seen, but Parker's stock has never been higher having recorded his third Championship promotion at the third attempt after previously taking Fulham and Bournemouth up in 2020 and 2022 respectively.

‘World-Class’ Manager Wants Tottenham Job After Postecoglou Sack Update

‘World-Class’ Manager Wants Tottenham Job After Postecoglou Sack Update - GiveMeSport
Description

Mauricio Pochettino would like to return to Tottenham Hotspur amid growing concerns over Ange Postecoglou’s future at the club, The Telegraph journalist Matt Law has revealed.

While the Argentinian tactician is currently focused on leading the USA to next summer’s World Cup, he would reportedly entertain a return to North London ‘one day’.

Pochettino was in charge of Spurs for five years between 2014 and 2019 and led them to a second-place Premier League finish in the 2016/17 season – their highest top-flight position in over 50 years.

He was sacked almost six years ago and went on to manage Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea before being appointed USA manager last year on a two-year contract.

Pochettino Open to Spurs Return

Six years after being sacked by Daniel Levy

According to Law, Tottenham are currently assessing several managerial options as Postecoglou is expected to leave at the end of the season, regardless of whether they win the Europa League.

The Australian tactician is heading for the exit amid Spurs’ dismal domestic campaign, with the club sitting 16th in the table with five games remaining.

Tottenham have never finished outside the top 15 in Premier League history and are set to miss out on a top-half finish for the first time since the 2007/08 campaign, when they ended up 11th.

Their lowest finish under Pochettino, praised as 'world-class', was sixth in the 2014/15 season, which was the Argentinian’s first year in charge.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Pochettino won 160 of 293 games in charge of Tottenham.

Tottenham are believed to have earmarked Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola and Fulham coach Marco Silva as potential managerial candidates.

However, according to GIVEMESPORT sources, a move for Iraola could prove difficult – the Spaniard is set for talks to extend his contract on the Dorset coast.

Senior Tottenham Figure to Leave This Summer, He’s Postecoglou’s ‘Key Ally’

Senior Tottenham Figure to Leave This Summer, He’s Postecoglou’s ‘Key Ally’ - GiveMeSport
Description

Tottenham Hotspur chief football officer Scott Munn is set to leave the club this summer, The Telegraph journalist Matt Law has revealed.

The Australian executive’s future in North London is reportedly in doubt just two years after he joined Spurs amid their disappointing season under Ange Postecoglou.

Tottenham are now heading for their lowest ever finish in Premier League history as they sit 16th in the table with five games to play, including a trip to leaders Liverpool on Sunday.

They have never finished outside the top 15 since the Premier League’s launch in 1992, while they last missed out on the top half 17 years ago, in the 2007/08 season.

Scott Munn Likely to Depart Spurs

At the end of the Premier League season

According to Law, Munn is one of Postecoglou’s key allies and biggest supporters at Spurs and could depart alongside the Australian tactician this summer.

Tottenham appointed Vinai Venkatesham as chief executive officer earlier this month, and it is believed that Munn’s role could be affected by his arrival.

The ex-Arsenal man is reportedly set to take on some responsibilities from executive chairman Daniel Levy and other board members in his new position.

Munn was appointed by Tottenham in 2023 following the departure of director of football Fabio Paratici and oversaw multiple internal changes during his time at the club.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Tottenham have lost 18 times in 33 Premier League games this season.

Tottenham are believed to be carefully evaluating Postecoglou’s position amid a poor domestic campaign, although the Australian could still save his job by winning the Europa League.

Spurs will face Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt in the semi-finals next week and would play the winner of Manchester United v Athletic Bilbao in the final.

Daniel Levy Makes ‘World-Class’ Manager No.1 Tottenham Target Over Iraola

Daniel Levy Makes ‘World-Class’ Manager No.1 Tottenham Target Over Iraola - GiveMeSport
Description

Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy has now made Mauricio Pochettino his first-choice option to replace Ange Postecoglou as manager this summer, according to TBR Football.

Spurs have had a horrible campaign this season with 18 Premier League defeats leaving them in 16th place in the table, although they have reached the Europa League semi-finals to keep their hopes of playing Champions League football next season alive.

However, even if they were to win that tournament this season it's expected that Postecoglou will leave the club and work has already begun on finding his replacement - with former boss Pochettino now among the frontrunners for the role.

Levy Wants Pochettino to Return

Pochettino would 'love' to go back to Tottenham

The Argentine coach is currently the manager of the United States national team, but has come under severe pressure early on in his tenure after some poor results recently.

Pochettino, who has been described as a 'world-class' manager, is still expected to lead the team into the 2026 World Cup next year, which they will host alongside Mexico and Canada, but the 52-year-old has openly admitted that he would love to return to north London at some point in his career.

Spurs chairman Levy is aware of that wish and the fact Pochettino hasn't settled well into the role, and he has now emerged as the top choice to take over this summer ahead of Bournemouth coach Andoni Iraola and Fulham's Marco Silva.

The Tottenham board are considering all their options for now, with no decision expected to be made before the end of the season anyway, but Pochettino's return is now very much in their thinking, with Levy believing that he is the perfect manager to work with the current squad - which has some top young talent.

Iraola was believed to be the frontrunner for the role but Bournemouth have moved to offer him a new contract, and reports suggest the Spaniard has rejected the chance to speak with Tottenham about the role.

Silva has also been linked with the job but is also considering a new contract with Fulham, while Brentford boss Thomas Frank has also been considered.

Daniel Levy ‘Ready to Sell’ One of Tottenham’s Best Players Alongside Romero

Daniel Levy ‘Ready to Sell’ One of Tottenham’s Best Players Alongside Romero - GiveMeSport
Description

Tottenham Hotspur could see one of their star defenders depart in the summer transfer window, according to reports - with the club thought to be open to a potential exit for Pedro Porro in order to free up funds to strengthen elsewhere.

Cristian Romero has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months and GMS sources previously stated that Tottenham would be open to selling the Argentine for the right price, amid a lack of form - but it could be a double defensive exit in north London with reports suggesting that Porro could fall under similar treatment by Ange Postecoglou.

Report: Tottenham Hotspur 'Open' to Selling Pedro Porro

The Spanish defender has been one of Spurs' brighter performers

The report by TBR Football states that Tottenham would consider selling Pedro Porro for the 'right price' in the summer transfer window.

He's been a constant for Postecoglou this season, scoring three goals and registering eight assists from right-back, being one of the club's best-performing players throughout what has been, without doubt, a treacherous campaign to say the least under the Australian gaffer in the Premier League.

However, with Djed Spence performing well at left-back when covering for the injured Destiny Udogie, that has seen Porro's position come under threat from the Englishman and now Porro could depart to make way for the former Nottingham Forest star.

As a result, Spurs would 'entertain' the possibility of selling Porro for over £50million in the summer, with Tottenham looking at their budgets, and that would see Spence come into their ranks whilst freeing up funds to land other players.

Tottenham have been wise with financial agreements but are always wary of Profit and Sustainability Rules, which could see Porro emerge as an option to sell. Real Madrid were linked, but Trent Alexander-Arnold's seemingly imminent move to the Bernabeu has nipped that in the bud - thought Manchester City are thought to be keeping tabs on his progress and need a new right-back to replace Kyle Walker in the summer.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Pedro Porro has eight caps for Spain's national team.

Porro formerly played for City in his youth, but he was sold to Sporting Lisbon after failing to make the grade - and if they don't go in for him, Juventus and Bayern Munich could also see him as an option.

Exclusive: Tottenham Scouting 'Frightening' Leeds Star Ahead of Possible Move - GiveMeSport
Description

Tottenham Hotspur have been keeping tabs on the development of Harry Gray and have refused to rule out the possibility of attempting to convince him to follow in brother Archie's footsteps by sealing a switch from Leeds United to Hotspur Way, GIVEMESPORT sources have revealed.

Although Spurs have a Europa League semi-final to look forward to and will be forced to fork out £20.9million to keep Kevin Danso in the summer, thanks to having an obligation to turn the central defender's loan switch from Lens into a permanent agreement, boss Ange Postecoglou and influential figures are making plans to lure reinforcements to north London.

A final decision needs to be made on whether to keep Mathys Tel, due to having an option to buy him for £45million after an initial temporary switch from Bayern Munich, but Tottenham are also threatening to raid Leeds after seeing them seal promotion back to the top flight earlier this week.

Spurs to Continue Monitoring Gray's Progress

Teenager may be handed chance to reunite with brother in capital

Tottenham have been keeping a close eye on Gray after sending scouts to watch him in action, according to GMS sources, and they are entertaining the possibility of attempting to lure him away from boyhood club Leeds as they continue aiming to recruit exciting up-and-coming talent.

Spurs tempted the 16-year-old's brother Archie away from Elland Road less than 12 months ago, thanks to agreeing a fee in the region of £30million with the West Yorkshire outfit, and he has gone on to become a firm fan favourite due to his committed performances in a side struggling to hit top form.

GMS sources have been informed that Tottenham are not necessarily rushing to make Gray a target for the upcoming transfer window, but they are keeping their options open and could make a move for him further down the line after seeing his sibling seamlessly adjust to life as a regular starter in the Premier League.

The forward has earned praise when trying to make his mark in Leeds' youth system, with former Spurs winger Aaron Lennon describing him as 'frightening', and he was rewarded with his senior debut when the Whites sealed automatic promotion to the Premier League by recording a convincing victory over Stoke City earlier this week.

Tottenham are planning to continue keeping tabs on Gray's progress in his current surroundings, GMS sources have learned, and they are toying with the idea of eventually offering a route to north London if he shows promise when battling for further game time following his breakthrough.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Harry Gray was handed eight minutes of action when making his Championship debut for Leeds United earlier this week

Postecoglou Could Profit from Previous Deals

North Londoners have maintained strong relationship with Leeds

GMS sources have been told that Tottenham have maintained a strong relationship with Leeds since holding discussions last year, which could work in Postecoglou's favour if it becomes clear that there is a battle to secure Gray's services when the transfer window reopens for business in the summer.

Spurs allowed Manor Solomon to seal a loan switch to the Whites in August, following his decision to snub the opportunity to join La Liga outfit Getafe, while Joe Rodon also completed a permanent move to Elland Road as they went in search of recovering from losing the 2024 Championship play-off final to Southampton.

Tottenham's scouts have been impressed with what they have seen of Gray since being tasked with monitoring his performances, GMS sources understand, and there is hope behind the scenes that their previous negotiations with Leeds could allow them to fight off any potential competition if they choose to up the ante.

GMS sources recently revealed that Solomon wants to stay at Elland Road on a long-term basis instead of heading back to parent club Spurs at the end of the season, leading to there being a serious possibility that he has already made his final appearance under Postecoglou in north London.
