Tottenham Hotspur have made contact to sign Paris Saint-Germain striker Randal Kolo Muani in the last 24 hours, according to GIVEMESPORT senior correspondent Fabrizio Romano.

Spurs are set for a busy end to the summer transfer window as they look to bring in reinforcements for Thomas Frank. Mohammed Kudus, Joao Palhinha, and Xavi Simons have all arrived through the door, but with Tottenham competing in the Champions League this season, they'll likely need further additions for squad depth.

Reporting on X, Romano confirmed that in the last 24 hours, Tottenham have made contact to sign PSG striker Kolo Muani. Talks with Juventus for the centre-forward remain off as it stands, and the French international can emerge as an option for several clubs before the end of the transfer window later today.

"If talks with Juventus remain off as they are right now, Randal Kolo Muani can emerge as option for several top clubs on #DeadlineDay. Can exclusively reveal that Tottenham made an enquiry for Kolo in last 24h… could be one to watch."

Kolo Muani, who earns £210,000-a-week at PSG, appeared set to join Juventus this summer, but it's now an opportunity for Spurs to swoop in. Recent reports suggested Dominic Solanke has suffered an injury, so it's no surprise to see Tottenham making a late move to sign another striker.

After an impressive start to the season, Spurs took a step backwards at the weekend, losing at home to Bournemouth in the Premier League.

Having signed Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig, Tottenham Hotspur should push ahead with a move for Savinho before the transfer window closes.

Although Ange Postecoglou ended Spurs’ 17-year trophy drought by winning the Europa League last season, the club’s poor Premier League form saw the Australian sacked in the summer. In his place, the Lilywhites appointed Thomas Frank, who proved himself to be a tactically astute manager during his time with Brentford.

The Dane has, at the time of writing, lost just one of his three Premier League games in charge of Tottenham. Prior to their 1-0 defeat against Bournemouth, Frank guided Spurs to a 3-0 win over Burnley and an impressive 2-0 victory against Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City, having made three major additions to his squad in the market.

Not including any players who signed for Spurs having spent time at the club on loan last term, Tottenham have, this summer, recruited Joao Pahlinha on a season-long loan from Bayern Munich and drafted in creative outlets Mohammed Kudus and Xavi Simons from West Ham and RB Leipzig respectively.

The addition of Simons in particular for Tottenham, who remain in the market for further additions, was crucial. The Dutchman will offer much-needed creativity alongside Kudus in the absence of James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski, who will both be absent due to injury for some time.

For much of the window, Tottenham have been pursuing a deal for Savinho of Manchester City. The Brazilian winger has impressed many since moving to the Premier League last summer and Frank, evidently, wants the 21-year-old as part of his long-term plans.

Even with the talent they have recruited this summer, Tottenham should continue with their efforts to sign the wide player until the window slams shut on the 1st September.

Savinho ‘Desperate’ For Spurs Move, Club Should Keep Pushing

Despite his young age, Savinho is already a brilliant player, having been a part of the Brazilian national team since 2024. The attacker recorded 10 assists in his debut Premier League season, but given City have signed Rayan Cherki to bolster their already well-stocked attacking ranks, it is unclear whether Savinho has a clear place in the team.

City are, evidently, reluctant to sell Savinho, but the Brazilian is reportedly “desperate” to move to Tottenham. Frank has shown, both with Brentford and in his early reign with Tottenham so far, that he is willing to change his tactics on a weekly basis.

As such, having Savinho, who has been called a “superstar,” as an option along with the likes of Simons and Kudus would mean that, in theory, Frank could have a consistent source of attacking brilliance on the pitch and be especially potent in attack if the trio played together. Spurs are expected to return to a position within the top six this season and adding Savinho to their squad would certainly make that goal easier to attain.

Tottenham Hotspur may have stolen a march over rival clubs in the race to sign Manchester City star Manuel Akanji, according to reports - with Thomas Frank's men now thought to be 'leading the race' to sign the 30-year-old in the final day of the transfer window period, ahead of other major clubs in Europe.

The report by Italian outlet Gazzetta states that AC Milan have made Akanji their first-choice target, who is valued by City at around £12.8million plus add-ons - and an agreement between the Serie A side and City won't be a problem.

Report: Tottenham 'Frontrunners' to Sign Manuel Akanji from Manchester City

However, they still need to convince Akanji to join, having discussed the £180,000-a-week wages that he earns at the Etihad Stadium with the Swiss star - and that potential obstacle has put Tottenham into the lead in the race for his signature.

The fact that they can offer more in terms of wages, as well as Champions League football, means that Akanji's desire to play in Europe's premier cup competition can be fulfilled at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Spurs have been after a central defender for some time, making bids for stars such as Burnley's Maxime Esteve, Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi and Bayer Leverkusen starter Piero Hincapie in recent times - though they are still without solid backup for Cristian Romero and Micky Van de Ven.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Manuel Akanji has three goals in 71 caps for Switzerland.

Kevin Danso has somewhat impressed, but Radu Dragusin has failed to stamp his mark on the club after his move from Genoa 18 months ago, and the club cannot afford to have teenager Archie Gray in an unnatural centre-back position again, a period last season that massively contributed to their 17th-place finish in the Premier League.

Akanji has experience in abundance, having featured 58 times for Basel, 158 times for Borussia Dortmund in a five-year spell, and 136 times for City - including winning the treble in his debut campaign at the club. His first three seasons under Pep Guardiola saw the Swiss star feature in 85 of their 114 top-flight games, a solid amount for a club who like to rotate their defence due to lengthy runs in other competitions.

Spurs would massively benefit from that themselves, having qualified for the Champions League, and if they can remain as frontrunners before the deadline, then they will have secured a superb player for their ranks, aiming to mix their youthful signings with experience to continue their strong run of form after their Europa League triumph at the end of May.

Tottenham have asked about signing Paris Saint-Germain forward Randal Kolo Muani on deadline day, according to TBR Football.

The North London side are reportedly exploring a late move for the 26-year-old striker, who is expected to depart Parc des Princes in the final hours of the summer window.

Kolo Muani has no shortage of suitors on the final day of the market, with Chelsea and Juventus also eyeing a potential deal.

The Frenchman is believed to be prioritising a return to Italy, where he spent the second part of last season on loan, scoring 10 goals in 22 appearances for Juventus.

Tottenham Make Kolo Muani Enquiry

According to TBR Football, Bayern Munich have also enquired about Kolo Muani as a potential alternative to Nicolas Jackson, but received the same response – the 26-year-old only wants a return to Juventus.

However, the Italian club have so far been unable to reach an agreement with PSG for his arrival, despite Kolo Muani pushing for the move over the past three months.

The £210,000-a-week forward, who is under contract at Parc des Princes until the summer of 2028, has no future at PSG under Luis Enrique, having made just two starts last season.

Kolo Muani has made 54 appearances for PSG since joining from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023, scoring 11 goals and providing seven assists.

He featured for Juventus at the Club World Cup in June, scoring twice in three appearances to help the Italian side reach the Round of 16.

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly made an approach to sign Ademola Lookman but made clear he must respond to them by midnight on Sunday.

TEAMtalk reports that Sours have made "new contact" as they plot a potential deal for Lookman, who wants to leave Atalanta. The Lilywhites intend to back Thomas Frank with one more "explosive" attacker following the arrivals of Xavi Simons from RB Leipzig and Mohammed Kudus from West Ham United.

Lookman looked set to join Inter Milan earlier in the window, but Atalanta rejected the Nerazzurri's offer, much to the dismay of the Nigerian. He released a statement requesting permission to leave Gewiss Stadium, where he has spent three years.

Tottenham Give Lookman Decision Deadline

Tottenham aren't the only ones interested in signing Lookman, as he has received plenty of interest from around Europe. Bayern Munich have joined the race seemingly because Chelsea have pulled the plug on their loan deal for Nicolas Jackson.

Fabrizio Romano confirmed in his GIVEMESPORT newsletter that Lookman was on Spurs' radar even while they were working on a deal for Simons. The original reports state that the North Londoners have now "revisited Atalanta to discuss more details".

Spurs have given the Nigeria international a deadline because they have alternatives in mind, including West Ham's Lucas Paqueta and Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers. Manchester City's Savinho has been a top target, but the Cityzens aren't prepared to part ways with the Brazilian.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Ademola Lookman has scored 52 goals in 118 games for Atalanta.

Lookman, once dubbed "unstoppable", has been one of Italian football's top attackers in recent years and was crucial to Atalanta's Europa League triumph in 2024. He scored a hat-trick in the competition's final to defeat an unbeaten Bayer Leverkusen side.

The 27-year-old has Premier League experience under his belt, having previously spent time at Fulham, Everton, and Leicester City. He failed to reach expectations at either club before exploding into a "world-class" talent in Serie A.

Tottenham Hotspur chiefs appear to have been given a major setback in their bid to sign West Ham United star Lucas Paqueta on Sunday - but they've already been proactive, and could end up signing a better alternative than the Brazilian after reported talks for Atalanta star Ademola Lookman.

Paqueta scored the Irons' second goal from the penalty spot in a shock 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon, and having been linked with a move away from the London Stadium, he appeared to signal his intentions during his celebration. Running to the away fans, the midfielder kissed the West Ham badge and made a gesture that any talks surrounding an exit are off the cards, mimicking answering a telephone and throwing it away before pointing to the floor, gesturing that he would be staying.

Report: Tottenham 'Open Talks' for Ademola Lookman

That is as clear of an indication as possible to any potentially interested side that he would not be willing to join them in the final 24 hours of the transfer window.

And, as such, Tottenham have reportedly turned to Lookman. The report by journalists Jamie Brown and Graeme Bailey on TBR Football states that Tottenham have 'opened talks' with Atalanta to sign the London-born forward, in a bid to bring him back to his home city. The attacker has been touted for a move away from the Bergamo-based side throughout the summer, and it appeared as though he would be on his way to Inter Milan before the San Siro side pulled out of talks, leaving the 'world-class' star at the Gewiss Stadium for the time being.

However, Lookman is now 'ready' to fly to London to make the move, with Atalanta wanting £43million to part ways with the former Premier League starlet - and they could even accept a loan-with-obligation bid which would help Spurs' financial outlook for the coming campaign, with the money only being sent to Atalanta next summer if a deal was to go through.

Lookman Would be a Better Alternative to Paqueta for Tottenham

Paqueta would be a strong addition to Tottenham's midfield ranks, but his output for the Hammers is not great when it comes to attacking figures. This season has changed that somewhat, but Lookman's output is better for a forward - and Tottenham have already signed Joao Palhinha from Bayern Munich for their engine room anyway.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Ademola Lookman has eight goals in 29 caps for Nigeria.

Lookman would allow Mohammed Kudus to feature on the right-hand side of the park, and allow the former Everton starlet to flourish on the left, with Xavi Simons taking a central role - giving Thomas Frank some serious options in his attacking ranks.

The Nigerian international has 39 goals in just 93 Serie A games for La Dea, and that attacking instinct bearing down on goal will be a huge asset to Tottenham, with Frank looking to shore his side up before unleashing attacking talent all over the pitch to outscore his opponents. Paqueta is a strong player, but he doesn't offer what Lookman does in that regard - and Spurs may have come off with the better alternative.

Tottenham Hotspur are “in talks” with Atalanta about a deal for their star forward Ademola Lookman ahead of the transfer deadline, according to TBR Football.

Despite ending their 17-year trophy drought by winning the Europa League, Ange Postecoglou was sacked by Spurs for their poor Premier League form. In his place, the Lilywhites appointed Thomas Frank, formerly of Brentford, and have made three major additions for the Dane.

Not including any permanent additions who had spent time at the club on loan in the previous season, Spurs have recruited creative outlets Mohammed Kudus and Xavi Simons from West Ham and RB Leipzig respectively, having also signed Joao Palhinha on a season-long loan from Bayern Munich.

All three could prove to be crucial players for Spurs, with Simons offering the club further creative depth in the aftermath of both James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski suffering injuries. With Champions League football on their calendar, Tottenham will have a busy schedule across the campaign and as such, it is understandable as to why Spurs are seeking further additions ahead of the deadline.

Now, reports have indicated that Spurs could push forward with a move for this sensational attacker.

Spurs Pushing For Lookman, He’s Keen On The Move

TBR Football have reported that Ademola Lookman is “emerging as an option” for Spurs in the final stages of the transfer window. Since joining Atalanta in 2022, Lookman has developed into one of the best forwards in world football, having been named African Footballer of the Year and making the Ballon d’Or shortlist in 2024.

Lookman has been seeking a move away from Bergamo this summer, having fallen out with the hierarchy at Atalanta. Tottenham have seemingly tracked the Nigerian international for some time and are now, as per TBR Football, in talks to negotiate a potential transfer for the 27-year-old. A deal "could well happen," with a move to Spurs said to "appeal" to Lookman.

Comfortable either out wide or as a central striker, Lookman, who has been called "incredible," would be a brilliant addition for Frank’s squad. The Nigerian international is entering the prime years of his career and if Spurs are unsuccessful in their attempts to sign Savinho from Manchester City, then Lookman would represent a brilliant alternative as Spurs look to return to a top-six league finishing position at the end of the campaign.

Tottenham could explore a late move for Liverpool defender Joe Gomez before the transfer deadline on Monday, according to Sky Sports.

The North London side have reportedly earmarked the England international as a potential addition to Thomas Frank’s backline, as Gomez could be available for a move in the final day of the summer window.

Liverpool are looking to replace the 28-year-old with Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi and could be open to Gomez’s departure if they get the deal done in time.

Gomez is believed to have several suitors in England and Europe amid his potential availability, with Palace, Tottenham and AC Milan all reportedly interested in the London-born defender.

According to GIVEMESPORT senior correspondent Fabrizio Romano, the Serie A side have opened talks to sign Gomez before the deadline, with an official bid on the table.

Tottenham Eyeing Late Joe Gomez Deal

According to Sky Sports, signing a new centre-back is not a priority for Tottenham in the remaining hours of the summer transfer window, but Gomez is believed to be on the shortlist amid uncertainty over his future.

The 28-year-old defender struggled for regular minutes in Liverpool’s title-winning campaign in 2024/25, making just nine Premier League appearances, six of which were starts.

He made an appearance on the opening day of the new season, coming off the bench during their 4-2 win over Bournemouth, but has not featured since.

The 15-cap England international, who joined Liverpool from Charlton in the summer of 2015, is under contract until June 2027.

GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Gomez is yet to score a goal in 242 appearances for Liverpool.

Tottenham have spent close to £200m on new signings in their first summer with Frank, with Xavi Simons the latest to join in a reported £52m deal from RB Leipzig.

The North London side have also welcomed Mohammed Kudus and Joao Palhinha, while permanent deals were struck for Kevin Danso and Mathys Tel following their loan spells last season.

Spurs are also looking to sign another England international in Atletico Madrid’s Conor Gallagher, with reports claiming the Lilywhites are frontrunners to secure the 25-year-old’s signature.

Tottenham Hotspur want to sign a winger before Monday's transfer deadline and AC Milan star Rafael Leao has emerged as a target, according to Miguel Delaney.

Thomas Frank's side started the season well with two wins and two clean sheets in their first two games of the Premier League, but fell to their first defeat in a toothless performance against Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon.

The Lilywhites are now keen to add more firepower to their squad before the end of the transfer window, and they have discussed a move to sign Portugal international Leao in a surprise deal.

Tottenham Eyeing Rafael Leao Deal

Spurs have already added Mohammed Kudus and Xavi Simons to their forward line this summer in deals worth over £100m combined, but after allowing captain Heung-Min Son to join LAFC and seeing midfield playmaker James Maddison suffer a serious knee injury during pre-season, they want more.

Leao, who has been described as 'one of the best players in the world', is someone who club chiefs have raised as a potential option for the position, however, a deal is expected to be too complicated to complete in such a short space of time.

While a winger is seen as the preference, the club would also be open to signing another attacker as they believe Simons is capable of playing in a wider position if necessary.

The club have been strongly linked with a move for Man City star Savinho in recent weeks, and the Brazilian is open to a move to north London ahead of the deadline as he wants to play more regularly to earn a place in the Brazil squad for the World Cup next year.

However, as it stands, Man City are currently blocking any deal despite Spurs being willing to spend big money to make a deal happen, as they believe in the player for their project and don't believe they have the time or options to replace him so late on.

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly frontrunners in the race with Manchester United and others to sign former Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher.

CaughtOffside reports that Spurs are in pole position to sign Gallagher, who Atleti are believed to have made available for sale. The Spanish giants want around £45m for the Englishman who has struggled to impress Diego Simeone.

The Lilywhites are long-term admirers and were poised to swoop for the 25-year-old when a move to the Metropolitano was in doubt. Thomas Frank's predecessor, Ange Postecoglou, was eager to bring him to North London, and it appears he remains a target despite his struggles in Spain.

Tottenham Readying Bid For Conor Gallagher

Gallagher joined Atleti in a £33.7m deal and started brightly before coming off the boil and losing his starting berth in Simeone's side. He was brought off at half-time of a shock 2-1 loss to Espanyol in Los Colchoneros' La Liga opener.

The England international has since been named on the bench, and it appears that the Spaniards are prepared to part ways permanently. He has four years left on his contract but could soon be returning to the Premier League with Spurs a possible destination.

The report claims that Daniel Levy's transfer chiefs view Gallagher as a "perfect fit" and that they are "preparing a bid in the region of £35m-40m." He could be keen on a return to the English capital ahead of next summer's World Cup and to join a Lilywhites side undergoing a rebuild.

Spurs may face competition from United, who are thought to be "monitoring" the situation as they eye a new midfielder for Ruben Amorim. But they also have Crystal Palace's Adam Wharton on their radar as a possible Carlos Baleba alternative.

Palace are also keen on bringing Gallagher, who earns a purported £200,000 per week (via Capology), back to Selhurst Park after he shone on loan and became their 2021-22 Player of the Year. There is also interest from Newcastle United, although the arrival of Jacob Ramsey may place doubts on another midfield acquisition.

Spurs have made some high-profile signings after winning last season's Europa League, including Xavi Simons, who arrived from RB Leipzig on Friday. A new holding midfielder arrived in the form of Joao Palhinha, who joined on loan from Bayern Munich, but another midfield signing looks to be on the agenda ahead of Monday's deadline.
