Spurs Web

Journalist Pete O’Rourke has shed light on whether he expects Archie Gray to still be at Tottenham Hotspur next season after a number of elite clubs entered the race for the midfielder.

Spurs Web has relayed several reports suggesting that top Premier League and European clubs are circling over Tottenham’s young starlets, as the Lilywhites stand on the brink of relegation.

One of those is Archie Gray, who is on the radar of six different clubs, according to a recent update in the British media.

It has been revealed that the 20-year-old, who is valued at over £60m, is on the radars of Liverpool, Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Chelsea, Aston Villa, Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid.

Tottenham will be confident of keeping Archie Gray under one condition

The young midfielder has been one of the rare shining lights of what has been a campaign to forget for the Lilywhites.

Journalist Pete O’Rourke has suggested that Spurs want to build around Gray and asserted that they will be confident of hanging onto the youngster as long as they remain in the Premier League.

When asked about the speculation over the former Leeds man, O’Rourke told Football Insider: “If Tottenham stay in the Premier League, I’m sure they’ll be confident they can keep hold of Archie Gray. He’s under a long-term contract until 2030 and is still only 20-years-old despite having played so many games.

“Tottenham want to build around Gray, they don’t really want to lose him but a lot will depend on what league Tottenham find themselves in next season, if they can keep hold of their best players or not.”

Spurs want to hold onto Gray even if they go down

This report comes just less than a week after TEAMtalk claimed that Tottenham consider Gray and two other midfielders untouchable this summer, even if they get relegated.

The outlet claimed that the Lilywhites want to avoid a fire sale even if they fail to stay in the top flight, and believe that the England U21 international could help them in their quest to bounce back up.

Tottenham Hotspur supporters have voiced their collective frustration following reports that Destiny Udogie could be set for another spell on the sidelines ahead of the crucial Premier League trip to Molineux.

It is fair to say that Tottenham Hotspur have had to deal with their fair share of injuries this season, as several stars have been out at different points in this campaign.

However, with the season run-in now in full swing, the injury crisis appears to be easing significantly as the number of sidelined players has dropped from a peak of 13 to single figures.

Ahead of the clash against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux, Spurs Web reported that Roberto De Zerbi could be without just five players due to injuries, but that number could potentially have gone up by one following the latest reports.

Tottenham fans react as Destiny Udogie remains injury doubt for Wolves fixture

It is believed that Destiny Udogie is now a doubt for this weekend’s game at Molineux. It remains unknown what the injury is or the extent, but given the full-back’s track record on the injury front, it is not entirely surprising.

Udogie has just returned from a spell on the sidelines and has been key to Tottenham’s tactical setup on the left, but he could now be out. All eyes will be on Roberto De Zerbi’s press conference later this week.

Tottenham fans who have caught wind of the latest reports have now given their reaction, and many are losing patience with the full-back, with calls for him to be moved on this summer.

One fan said: “Needs to be sold. Hardly ever fit.” Another added: “He’s always an injury doubt.” One more commented: “Yea sell bro after this season please.” Someone even said: “Think it is time to sell him whatever league we are in next season”

another stated: “I do not rate him anyway to be honest. What does he offer? I would be rid of him whatever league we are in. So unreliable and really we are judging him from his first season with us”

One more commented: “Genuinely wonder if it is mind or body at this stage. Being fit to play is part of football and I, rightly or wrongly, doubt his professionalism.”

Another highlighted Spurs’ depth at full-back: “Davies is too old, Spence is an RB, Udogie is usually crocked and Souza is 19 with 4 starts.🥴 And the geniuses that run the club apparently think signing a 32-year-old Andy Robertson is the solution?”

A final fan stated: “Get rid, he is the new sicknote, he has taken that from Darren Anderton 🤣🤣🤣”

Djed Spence could replace Destiny Udogie as Spurs face Wolves without key man

Destiny Udogie has definitely had his struggles since he joined Tottenham back in 2023, with injuries often keeping him out during the course of a season.

He is a top full-back given his ability to invert and hold the width, but such quality is rarely at the disposal of Spurs for long periods, as he has not gone a season without being sidelined.

If he is out for the Wolves game, then Roberto De Zerbi will have to turn to Djed Spence, but there is a question over how that will affect the balance of the team.

Spence is not left-footed, and that often leads to him cutting onto his preferred foot before crossing, which could affect the dynamics on the left. It will be interesting to see how De Zerbi adapts this weekend.

A Tottenham Hotspur defender, who has started both of their games under Roberto De Zerbi so far, is a doubt for the clash against Wolves after suffering a fresh injury.

Tottenham desperately need a win to boost their chances of survival as they head to the Molineux Stadium to face the side sitting at the bottom of the table.

Wolves have now officially been relegated from the Premier League, and De Zerbi will be hoping third time is the charm after picking up just one point in his first two games in charge of the Lilywhites.

However, his side has now been handed yet another major injury blow ahead of their trip to the West Midlands.

Destiny Udogie may miss Tottenham’s clash against Wolves

The Sun have now revealed that Destiny Udogie is the latest Spurs star to succumb to an injury ahead of their big clash on Saturday.

The Italian has had a number of fitness issues over the last two seasons, including knee and hamstring problems.

The left-back only returned to action from his most recent hamstring problem last month, but he has now suffered another setback.

While the nature of Udogie’s latest injury is unknown, he has been deemed a doubt for Saturday’s clash, which means that Djed Spence could be in line for his first start under De Zerbi.

Two other senior Spurs stars could return against Wolves

While Udogie’s absence would be a major blow for the Lilywhites, they could be boosted by the return of two of their senior men this Saturday.

The Standard have claimed that James Maddison and Guglielmo Vicario could be in line to feature against Wolves.

Tottenham Hotspur head into a must-win clash against Wolverhampton Wanderers this weekend, with survival hopes hanging in the balance. Here’s how to watch the clash between Tottenham and Wolves.

Tottenham Hotspur’s next match sees them take on Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League, a side whose relegation has been confirmed following West Ham United and Crystal Palace’s draw.

The last time the two sides met, Spurs were held to a 1-1 draw at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, only securing a point late on thanks to a Joao Palhinha equaliser.

However, much has changed since that meeting, with Tottenham now in the bottom three and fighting for survival as they risk relegation.

Tottenham will take on Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday, 25 April 2026 at Molineux Stadium, with kick-off scheduled for 15:00 (UK time).

Heading into this match, Tottenham still have several injury concerns to contend with. Cristian Romero, Ben Davies, Mohammed Kudus, Wilson Odobert and Guglielmo Vicario are all expected to miss out.

However, Vicario’s situation remains touch and go, as he could return to action at the weekend following his hernia surgery before the international break.

Wolverhampton Wanderers also have issues, with Jose Sa (shoulder injury, doubtful), Sam Johnstone (shoulder injury), Matt Doherty (knock, doubtful), Yerson Mosquera (suspended), and Enso Gonzalez (knee injury) all affected.

Tottenham prediction vs Wolves as survival race intensifies

Spurs must win this clash, as victory on Saturday could see them move out of the relegation places if West Ham United fail to beat Everton.

The display against Brighton and Hove Albion is a major positive for Roberto De Zerbi, who saw his side produce their best performance after just two games in charge, but his side must build on it this weekend.

If Spurs can replicate that level against Wolverhampton Wanderers, they could come away with all three points.

Tom Hiddleston has now revealed whether or not he would like Tottenham Hotspur to be relegated from the Premier League as they continue their fight for survival.

Many Tottenham Hotspur fans will be desperate to see their club get out of what is a precarious situation, as they sit in the bottom three with five games left to play.

But it is not all doom and gloom for the Lilywhites, with two points the difference between them and being above those dreaded dotted lines, with London rivals West Ham United in 17th.

Of course, securing at least nine points in their next five matches could well guarantee Tottenham’s safety, but their performances so far in 2026, where they remain without a win, do little to inspire confidence.

Tottenham relegation fears draw Tom Hiddleston response

Speaking on Sky Sports, Tom Hiddleston has now given his thoughts on Spurs potentially being relegated from the Premier League.

The actor, who is a well-known supporter of rivals Arsenal, shared his thoughts on the pressure Tottenham are facing and how relegation would impact the club, its players and supporters, while also acknowledging the wider effect on the Premier League.

He said: “Obviously it is very difficult for them, for the team, for the club, for the fans and you know such a historic in the Premier League they would be feeling it a bit and there is a different kind of pressure that that club will be feeling over the next five or six weeks that they are in a fight.

“And so you know as someone involved professionally at all in the sport, you know for Spurs fans it is like that is rough and as an Arsenal fan, the season is different without a North London derby so it is a… yeah for Spurs fans I hope the club can turn it around it is a you know that is my feeling about it.”

North London derby importance highlighted as Spurs battle drop

Interestingly, Hiddleston is not the only one connected with Arsenal who would rather Tottenham beat the drop this season.

Samir Nasri wants Spurs to stay in the Premier League despite having played for the Gunners for three seasons, also citing the potential loss of the derby as his reason.

He said, “Even though I played for Arsenal, I would not want Tottenham to be relegated. It is too big a club… we would have lost the derbies.”

Arsenal have been getting the better of Spurs in the last few derbies, but that fixture remains one of the historic ones in the Premier League over the past few years, with both clubs having gone almost half a century without being relegated from the league.

Tottenham Hotspur’s pursuit of Manchester City goalkeeper James Trafford just got even harder following the latest update on the England international’s future.

It has been widely reported that Tottenham have identified Trafford as an option to replace Guglielmo Vicario this summer ahead of Roberto De Zerbi’s first full season in charge.

Sources have suggested that Man City are ready to sell the Spurs target this summer, but the Lilywhites will face plenty of competition for the goalkeeper.

Several outlets have suggested over recent weeks that Newcastle and Aston Villa are ready to challenge Tottenham for Trafford, and to make matters worse, another Premier League club have now entered the race.

Tottenham would have to pay around £35m-£40m to prise Trafford away from the Etihad Stadium.

Brighton view Tottenham target James Trafford as a ‘dream’ signing

Sky Sports Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg has now revealed that while the Englishman is open to leaving Man City, Pep Guardiola’s men want to keep him.

That is not the only complication that Tottenham will face in their pursuit, as the journalist adds that Brighton view Trafford as their ‘dream’ target should Bart Verbruggen leave the club this summer.

Plettenberg wrote on X: “James Trafford is open to leaving Manchester City this summer in order to play regularly. MCFC want to keep him. For Brighton, he is one of the dream transfer targets should Bart Verbruggen leave the club.

“Other high-ranking candidates include Robin Risser (RC Lens) and Noah Atubolu. Trafford is also on the shortlist of several other English clubs – one to watch.”

Why Brighton’s interest in Trafford may not be bad news for Spurs

It may not be completely bad news for the Lilywhites that the Seagulls are eyeing the Man City star as a possible replacement for Verbruggen.

This is because some publications have suggested that Roberto De Zerbi wants to reunite with Verbruggen at Tottenham this summer.

Tottenham Hotspur fans will be breathing a sigh of relief at the latest update from Croatia regarding Luka Vuskovic’s knee injury.

The Tottenham centre-back has missed Hamburg’s last two games with a knee injury, and his side have lost both encounters against Stuttgart and Werder Bremen.

Concerningly, reports from Germany over recent days have claimed that Vuskovic’s knee joint is more severely damaged than initially suspected and that the centre-back is not expected to feature against Hoffenheim on April 25th.

Meanwhile, the Tottenham medical team are in contact with Hamburg about Vuskovic’s rehabilitation, with Spurs expected to take the final call on when the defender will return.

Tottenham are just being cautious with Luka Vuskovic, no major concerns

A new report in Sportske Novosti has now played down any concerns about the 19-year-old’s knee.

The outlet claims that Vuskovic has only been diagnosed with a ‘slight ligament strain’ as a result of a knock he received in training.

Following dialogue between Tottenham Hotspur and Hamburg, it was agreed that it would be best to rest the centre-back for three or four matches before he returns for the final couple of matches of the campaign.

The outlet adds that the youngster would have likely had a break around this time anyway after a long and grueling season, given that he is expected to feature for Croatia at the World Cup.

Could Hamburg’s precarious position force an early Vuskovic return?

Sportske Novosti say that the plan is for the teenager to return for HSV’s penultimate match of the season against Freiburg on May 10.

However, the report points out that with only five points separating Hamburg from the relegation playoff spot and suggests that Vuskovic could return sooner if the club’s results do not turn around.

Contrary to what reports from Germany have claimed, the publication asserts that the Tottenham centre-back is currently not feeling any pain in his knee.

Arsenal legend Lauren has made a surprising statement about Tottenham Hotspur’s fight to stay in the Premier League this season.

Spurs are now big favourites to join Wolves and Burnley in the Championship after picking up just one point in their first two games under Roberto De Zerbi.

Brighton’s late equaliser last Saturday came as a huge blow to their chances of survival, with the Lilywhites yet to win a league game this calendar year.

Many pundits cannot see how Tottenham will get enough points to stay up, but one Gunners legend hopes that De Zerbi’s men do manage to pull off a great escape.

Lauren wants to see Arsenal play Tottenham every season

Lauren, who made 159 appearances for Arsenal during his seven seasons at Highbury and was part of their invincible season in 2023-24, has now conceded that he wants to see the Lilywhites stay up.

The Cameroonian admitted that the North London derby is one of the games he looks forward to the most every season, and that he does not want the fixture to disappear from the calender.

The former Gunners right-back told CasinoWizard: “As an Arsenal fan, there is a game we want to see every single season and that is the North London Derby against Tottenham.

“It’s good to be playing your biggest rivals every season. I don’t think Tottenham going down would be good news for Arsenal fans or the Premier League in general.

“It’s good to play them and beat them and I want that to continue. Tottenham relegation would be a big shock to the Premier League but preferably I would see them stay up and we take some points off them again next season.”

Lauren is not the only former Arsenal player to get behind this sentiment. Jens Lehmann revealed he doesn’t want to see Tottenham relegated, while Samir Nasri also wants Spurs to stay up.

Roberto De Zerbi remains confident of Spurs’ survival

Despite seeing Spurs lose against Sunderland and draw against Brighton, De Zerbi has taken plenty of positives from his side’s performances in the two games.

In fact, the Tottenham boss has suggested that his side can win their five remaining league matches if they play with the same mentality and spirit they did against his former side on Saturday.

Spurs desperately need three points against Wolves, who have officially been relegated from the Premier League following West Ham’s 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace on Monday.

Tottenham Hotspur travel to Molineux this weekend for a defining fixture in their battle for Premier League survival, and the appointment of the match officials for the clash with Wolves may offer a subtle boost to Roberto De Zerbi’s struggling side.

Tottenham Hotspur simply cannot afford to let their confidence drop at this stage of the season with so much still to play for.

Relegation remains a strong possibility for the North London club, who are currently sitting in the bottom three of the Premier League table following a dismal, winless start to 2026 that has left them without a victory in their last 15 attempts.

But Spurs have a significant opportunity to improve their record this calendar year with a win this weekend against an already relegated Wolves side.

However, De Zerbi’s men will have to improve their away record at Molineux if they are to secure a vital victory, as they currently remain without a win in their last three visits to the West Midlands.

Anthony Taylor appointed for Tottenham trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers

The Premier League has now confirmed the match officials for the clash between Spurs and Wolves on Saturday.

Anthony Taylor has been named referee, while Gary Beswick and Adam Nunn are set to be his assistants on the afternoon. Tom Bramall will take on fourth official duties, with VAR handled by Peter Bankes and assistant VAR Tim Robinson.

For Tottenham fans in the UK wondering how they can watch Wolves vs Spurs, they will have to wait for the highlights on Match of the Day, as it is not being broadcast on TV.

Spurs record under Anthony Taylor compared to Wolves

Despite their poor form this year, Spurs have been predicted to beat Wolves this weekend according to predictions from a supercomputer, although the contest is expected to be tightly fought.

However, while recent form suggests a difficult afternoon, the chances for Spurs could be improved when examining their historical record with Anthony Taylor in the middle.

The North London club has won exactly half of the matches the Cheshire official has overseen, winning 25 out of 50 matches while drawing six and losing 19.

This relatively positive win percentage stands in stark contrast to their current 15-game winless streak and provides a glimmer of hope for a fanbase desperate for a turnaround.

Meanwhile, the record for Wolves under the match official is considerably less impressive, as they have lost significantly more games than they have won when he has officiated.

Of the 33 matches Anthony Taylor has taken charge of involving Wolves, they have won ten, lost 17 and drawn six.

Former Tottenham Hotspur star Andros Townsend, who once thrived on the flanks of White Hart Lane, now finds his professional career following a remarkably similar trajectory to the current plight of the North London club, as both battle against the threat of relegation.

Spurs Web recently reported that Tottenham has spent close to one billion pounds on transfer recruitment over the last five years.

But despite this enormous financial outlay, which firmly establishes the club among the top five highest spenders in the Premier League during that period, the investment has failed to deliver sustained success on the pitch for the Lilywhites.

The club currently finds itself in the precarious position of the Premier League bottom three, with Roberto De Zerbi fighting to ensure the side does not suffer the ignominy of a drop to the Championship.

It is a startling situation for a multi-million-pound squad that was widely expected to be competing at the opposite end of the table this season.

However, the club is not the only party struggling for safety, as one of its former academy graduates finds himself in an almost identical position in Southeast Asia.

Former Tottenham winger Andros Townsend faces relegation battle in Thailand

Since departing Tottenham in 2016, Andros Townsend has experienced a varied career across several clubs, beginning with a permanent move to Newcastle United, where his individual form could not prevent the club from suffering relegation.

MORE SPURS STORIES

He subsequently moved to Crystal Palace for a reported £13 million and became a staple of the side for five seasons, making 185 appearances and scoring 16 goals, including a memorable Puskas-nominated volley against Manchester City in 2018.

Following spells at Everton and Luton Town, the winger moved abroad for the first time in his career to join Turkish Süper Lig side Antalyaspor in September 2024.

In August 2025, Townsend transferred to Thai League 1 side Kanchanaburi Power, where he remains a key part of the first-team squad as of April 2026.

While his career has seen him travel across continents, the veteran midfielder is now facing a familiar struggle at the bottom of the domestic standings.

Townsend runs the serious risk of being relegated to the second division with Kanchanaburi Power as his side has struggled for consistency throughout the campaign.

The team has played 27 matches so far and has managed to pick up just four victories, a disappointing return that has seen five different managers occupy the dugout in a single season.

Spurs and Andros Townsend both eye late survival charge

Interestingly, much like Tottenham, the side currently employing Townsend still possesses a mathematical chance of securing their safety with only three matches remaining in the season.

The difference between Kanchanaburi Power and 13th-placed Sukhothai FC is just three points, although the latter possesses a goal difference that is currently two goals superior to that of the side featuring the former Spurs man.

Should Kanchanaburi Power manage to win all of their remaining fixtures, they could well secure their top-flight status, which is a scenario that draws clear parallels with the situation currently unfolding in North London.

Tottenham remain in the relegation zone, but their destiny remains within their grasp if they can find a way to navigate their final hurdles in the Premier League.

De Zerbi knows that his side can still ensure their survival if they can manage to secure nine points from their final five games of the campaign.

Both the player and his former club find themselves entering the final weeks of their respective seasons with everything on the line as they look to avoid the drop to the second tier.
