Dele Alli’s career takes another twist as Tottenham icon could leave Europe - Spurs Web
Description

Dele Alli has not had the expected impact at Como, and it has now been suggested that the former Tottenham fan favourite is open to a move elsewhere this summer.

Dele remains revered by the Spurs faithful, with the attacking midfielder giving them some great memories in his seven years at the club after joining from MK Dons as a teenager in 2015.

Dele’s mental health issues have been well-documented, which is why many Spurs fans have been rooting for him to return to the pitch and get back to doing what he does best.

He is now trying to do that away from the spotlight of the Premier League, having joined Serie A side Como in January, but he managed to make just one appearance for the club last season.

Tottenham icon Dele Alli is now looking for a new club

According to a report in GZH, the former Tottenham Hotspur man is now looking for a new home, having failed to get his career back on track in the Italian top-flight.

It is asserted that the 29-year-old, who was once tipped to be the next big thing in English football, is now ready to leave Europe altogether and head to Brazil.

The report claims that Gremio have now been offered a chance to sign Dele after he struggled to recapture his form at Como.

MORE SPURS STORIES

The Brazilian side would not have to pay a transfer fee for the England international, but his wage demands are thought to be very high.

Will Gremio take up the chance to sign Dele?

GZH say that while the opportunity to sign a player of the former Tottenham star’s pedigree is tempting for Gremio, they are not inclined to pursue the move.

This is because the attacking midfielder’s salary demands would make him a risky signing, especially given some of the other gambles that the club have taken over recent years.

Gremio are said to be reluctant to take further risks on players with uncertain ‘physical and competitive conditions’ such as Dele.

Crystal Palace make big Marc Guehi transfer decision that could play into Tottenham’s hands

Crystal Palace make big Marc Guehi transfer decision that could play into Tottenham's hands - Spurs Web
Description

Crystal Palace have now made a decision on Marc Guehi after Tottenham Hotspur and two other Premier League clubs expressed interest in a move for the centre-back this summer.

The Eagles star has been a long-term target for Spurs, with Tottenham even having a £70m bid for Guehi turned down in January.

Reports indicate that Spurs continue to remain interested in Guehi, who has just a year left on his contract at Selhurst Park.

It was reported earlier this summer that Tottenham are expected to face intense competition for Guehi’s services, but the Lilywhites’ chances of landing the player could be boosted by the latest news coming out of Palace.

GiveMeSport now claim that Oliver Glasner’s men have informed Tottenham and other clubs that they are now open to offers for their captain.

The report claims that Spurs, Newcastle and Liverpool have all expressed an interest in securing the 25-year-old’s services this summer, and they now know that the defender is on the market.

It is explained that Palace rejected Tottenham Hotspur’s offer for Guehi in January as they were hopeful that they could tie him down to a new contract.

MORE SPURS STORIES

However, the centre-back has now refused to sign a new deal, and with the Eagles keen to strengthen their squad this summer, they have now decided to listen to offers for the player.

Liverpool are favourites for Guehi but Spurs have a lifeline

GiveMeSport say that Anfield looks likely to be Guehi’s next destination, but the Reds currently believe that Palace’s demands are too high.

Arne Slot’s men are only willing to sign the England international if he is available for a fee of less than £45m.

Additionally, the report claims that Guehi’s number one priority above anything else is getting regular game time next season ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

It is for that reason that the Chelsea academy graduate is not desperate to leave Selhurst Park and is willing to run his contract down and depart on a free transfer next summer.

Tottenham locked in four-way transfer fight for £26m striker, as Nottingham Forest rival - Spurs Web
Description

Tottenham Hotspur are continuing to monitor a prolific French striker, but they face competition for his services from a Premier League side as well as two other European clubs.

Thomas Frank has hinted that Richarlison might stay at Tottenham, but that has not stopped speculation linking various number nines with a move to Spurs.

One man who has been mooted as a target for Tottenham since the start of the summer is Rennes star Arnaud Kalimuendo, who scored 18 goals and provided four assists across all competitions last season.

Some sources have claimed over recent weeks that Tottenham would have to pay £26m to land Kalimuendo, but a new update from France suggested at least three other clubs also want the 23-year-old.

Tottenham are facing intense competition for Arnaud Kalimuendo

RMC Sport have now revealed that the race for the Rennes star is now heating up, with several clubs around the continent showing interest in his services.

While the outlet confirms that Tottenham are fans of Kalimuendo, it is revealed that Spurs have to see off competition from Villarreal, RB Leipzig, and Nottingham Forest to land the player.

The report also warns that more clubs could soon enter the race for the centre-forward, raising the possibility that he could become one of the most hotly contested signings of the summer.

MORE SPURS STORIES

It is revealed that Rennes are ready to sell the Frenchman for a fee of around €30m-€35m (£26m-£30.3m), and they have already started looking for a replacement, which suggests that they expect him to leave.

Who are the other strikers Tottenham are looking at?

Tottenham were credited with an interest in Yoane Wissa a few weeks ago, but over the last week, several sources have claimed that Spurs’ interest in the Brentford star has cooled.

Over the last few days, some sources have claimed that Tottenham could be handed a chance to sign Randal Kolo Muani as the PSG star’s move to Juventus has now stalled.

Tottenham Hotspur receive Marc Guehi lifeline after David Ornstein update

Tottenham Hotspur receive Marc Guehi lifeline after David Ornstein update - Spurs Web
Description

Tottenham’s path towards landing Marc Guehi may have just cleared up a little following David Ornstein’s big transfer update regarding the Crystal Palace man.

Thomas Frank is certainly not short of options at centre-back, but over the last week, it has become clear that the Lilywhites are continuing to scour the market for central defenders.

Tottenham have allegedly made a bid of €70m (£60.6m) for Illiya Zabarnyi, but the Bournemouth man is not the only Premier League centre-back Frank’s men are eyeing.

According to a recent update by The Telegraph, Spurs still remain interested in Marc Guehi, who has just a year left on his contract at Crystal Palace.

Earlier this summer, it looked like Spurs were outsiders in the race for the Palace star, with Liverpool emerging as the front-runners to land Guehi.

However, David Ornstein has now revealed that the Reds are hesitant to pay a big fee for the Eagles captain and are now considering moving for other alternatives instead.

The journalist said on The Athletic’s Transfer DealSheet: “Liverpool need to recruit a new centre-half with the imminent exit of Quansah and are looking at many candidates.

MORE SPURS STORIES

“As reported last week, Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi is a player under consideration, but with just one year remaining on his contract, Liverpool will only firm up their interest if the price is right.

“Nottingham Forest’s Murillo is admired but is likely to be too expensive, so sporting director Richard Hughes is looking at other young centre-halves.”

How much would Guehi cost this summer?

We know the North Londoners are ready to spend big on the England international based on the fact that Tottenham put in a £70m bid for Guehi during the January window.

Some sources have claimed that Guehi could be available for £50m this summer after refusing to sign a new deal at Selhurst Park.

Who is Luka Vuskovic? Get to know the towering Tottenham Hotspur goalscoring defender

Who is Luka Vuskovic? Get to know the towering Tottenham Hotspur goalscoring defender - Spurs Web
Description

Luka Vuskovic is a professional football player who plays as a centre-back for Tottenham Hotspur. The Croatian sealed his move to Tottenham on a permanent transfer from Hajduk Split in September 2023, and has made a name for himself as a goalscoring centre-back.

Luka Vuskovic has long been viewed as one of the brightest young prospects in European football, having sealed a move to Tottenham back when he was just 16 years old.

Now 18, the 6 ft 3 centre-back is set to embark on a new chapter under Spurs boss Thomas Frank, who will be keeping a close eye on his development.

There is plenty of excitement brewing around the defender’s potential, but who exactly is Luka Vuskovic, and what is it that makes him such an intriguing player to watch?

Who is Luka Vuskovic?

Luka Vuskovic is a professional footballer born in Split, Croatia, on 24 February 2007. Standing at 6 ft 4 (1.93 m), the 18-year-old plays as a centre-back and is currently contracted to Tottenham Hotspur.

The Croatian came through the youth ranks at Hajduk Split, a club steeped in tradition and known for producing top-level talent. It was there that his imposing frame, comfort on the ball, and leadership qualities first started attracting attention from scouts across Europe.

Vuskovic made his unofficial debut for Hajduk Split at just 15, featuring in a friendly against Urania in September 2022.

MORE SPURS STORIES

Two days after his 16th birthday, he made his professional debut, starting and playing the full 90 minutes in a league derby against Dinamo Zagreb – a match that ended in a heavy 4-0 defeat.

Despite the scoreline, he became the youngest player to feature in the Croatian top flight, alongside Marko Dabro, and also the youngest to ever appear in an Eternal derby, overtaking Josip Basic.

Luka Vuskovic’s rise at Hajduk Split and goal record

Only four days after his league debut, on 2 March 2023, Vuskovic grabbed his first senior goal in a 2-1 Croatian Cup win over Osijek. At 16 years and 5 days old, he became the youngest goalscorer in the club’s history in an official match.

The youngster’s meteoric rise did not go unnoticed, with several European clubs circling. However, on 25 September 2023, Tottenham Hotspur won the race for Vuskovic’s signature, paying £12 million to bring him to North London. Manchester City were also keen, but Spurs acted swiftly.

He remained at Hajduk Split after the deal, before heading on loan to Radomiak on 31 January 2024. He made his Ekstraklasa debut there on 10 February 2024 as a second-half substitute in a 6-0 loss to Cracovia, then started his first game a week later in another defeat, this time 4-0 to Pogon Szczecin.

His six-month loan ended with a return to Hajduk before a move to Belgian side Westerlo on 9 July 2024. There, he had an excellent season, scoring seven league goals as a centre-back.

Vuskovic has now returned to Tottenham and is under contract 2030.

A goalscoring debut for Tottenham

The Croatian did not take long to introduce himself to the Tottenham faithful. In a pre-season friendly against Reading on 19 July, Vuskovic scored in the second half and delivered a statement performance – scoring a goal, providing an assist, and helping keep a clean sheet.

It was a dream debut, albeit in a friendly, and one that will have certainly raised expectations. The 18-year-old already looks at ease in a Spurs shirt, and fans will be eager to see more.

With Thomas Frank known for trusting young talent, there is a real sense that Vuskovic could get opportunities to impress in the first team sooner rather than later.

Vuskovic comes from a rich footballing lineage. His father, Danijel, played for Hajduk Split and now coaches the club’s youth teams.

His grandfather, Mario, also represented the club at youth level and went on to have a professional career in the Netherlands. His great-grandfather, Marko, featured for Hajduk during World War II and later worked as an executive.

The family tree does not stop there. His brother, also named Mario, made the move from Hajduk to Hamburger SV in Germany. His cousins Moreno and Vito, and their father Ronald, have all played the game as well.

As for inspirations, Luka Vuskovic named Josko Gvardio as defensive role model. He describes Gvardiol as “an animal” and claims they share similar traits on the pitch.

He said: “My defensive role model is Josko Gvardiol. He’s an animal, I have never seen that in my life, he’s like an alien. We have similarities, but when you see him, you’re shocked at how good he is. We work well together, he solves problems, and I help – ha, ha!”

Croatia senior call-up and early career accolades

While still on loan away from Tottenham, Luka Vuskovic earned his first senior call-up to the Croatian national team for their World Cup qualifiers in June. It was a significant moment, reflecting just how highly he is rated back home and went on to earn his first Croatia cap as a late substitute against the Czech Republic in June 2025.

Vuskovic already made the prestigious Goal Next Gen list, coming in at 26th place among the top young talents in world football.

Individually, Vuskovic was awarded the Belgian Golden Shoe Goal of the Season for 2024. His rise through the ranks has also been filled with notable records: the youngest ever player in the Eternal derby, the youngest goalscorer in Hajduk Split’s history, and one of the youngest players to ever play in the Croatian top flight.

Luka Vuskovic career stats and numbers

Vuskovic has made 60 senior appearances so far in his career, scoring 13 goals and providing 4 assists – remarkable numbers for a centre-back up until the end of the 2024/25 season.

Tottenham vs Wycombe injury news

Tottenham Hotspur are still without several first-team players ahead of this match. Bryan Gil remains sidelined with a knee injury and is not expected to return before early August 2025.

Dejan Kulusevski is also unavailable as he recovers from a separate knee issue, with a return date set for mid-September.

Defender Radu Dragusin continues his rehabilitation following a cruciate ligament injury and will not be involved, with his expected return not until mid-October.

Wycombe Wanderers, on the other hand, have no reported injury concerns and are expected to field a full-strength side for the encounter.

Spurs Web prediction for Tottenham vs Wycombe

Thomas Frank has already hinted that he intends to field a strong starting eleven for this match, which implies that Tottenham will treat the contest with a competitive edge rather than just another fitness runout.

If the head coach does go with a balanced mix of senior players and emerging academy talents, then Spurs should have enough quality on the pitch to get the job done against Wycombe Wanderers.

Pre-season matches often throw up unpredictable scorelines, but based on the squad depth and quality in Tottenham’s ranks, we are backing the north London side to come away with a routine win.

Tottenham fans all have the same doubt about latest Heung-min Son transfer twist

Tottenham fans all have the same doubt about latest Heung-min Son transfer twist - Spurs Web
Description

Tottenham Hotspur fans are all saying the same thing about Heung-min Son’s latest links to the MLS, with many unconvinced by the reported interest from LAFC.

Tottenham Hotspur captain Heung-min Son has had his future up in the air this summer window. It was claimed a few days ago that Son is open to remaining at Tottenham up until January.

Son currently has 12 months left on his current Tottenham contract, and has undoubtedly secured his place as a club legend, following Spurs’ Europa League win last season.

The Tottenham captain managed 11 goals and 11 assists last term, one of his lowest since his debut season over a decade ago, but still interest in Son has been plenty, with clubs in the Middle East, America and Europe keeping tabs on the Korean star.

Tottenham fans react as LAFC push for Heung-min Son transfer

Reports claim that LAFC are now pushing hard to sign Heung-min Son in this summer window. It is understood that no major progress has been made yet, but the MLS side is trying hard to get the South Korean superstar in their side this summer.

Tottenham fans have not held back in their reactions, with many of them saying the same thing about the latest reports.

One fan said: “Do not see it, if you give us £34m (€40m) they can have him but do not see them having that money.”

MORE SPURS STORIES

Another added: “Makes sense for LAFC. High Korean and Korean American population in the Los Angeles and SoCal area, which could mean a huge boost in ticket and merchandise sales from those wanting to see Sonny in person. I hope that dressing room argument with Lloris was nothing serious and they made up.”

The comments about LAFC not being able to pay as much continued: “If we want any money for him, we need him going East, not West. He is a commercial giant. If we are going to part ways this summer (which I think we should), he needs to be sold to Saudi or Qatar for real cash. Not the few million that LA could afford.”

Another Tottenham supporter doubted the feasibility of a Heung-min Son transfer: “Spurs want £34m (€40m). MLS do not pay big transfer fees.” One more questioned: “You sure they can afford him?”

Another reiterated: “Doubt they pay enough to get him with the wages he would want (£34-£42m plus £200-£250k a week seems a stretch).”

One more added: “They would pay like £21m (€25m) max.”

Spurs stance on Son remains unchanged this summer

Despite interest in their captain, it is understood that Tottenham are not looking to force Heung-min Son out the door this summer.

However, reports claim that if a suitable offer comes in for Son, Tottenham will consider it. Still, there have been claims that Spurs could lose 75% of their pre-season appearance money if they sold Son before their Asia tour this summer, given some of the commercial agreements they have.

That means if Tottenham are to part ways with their Korean star, they would be looking to do so after their pre-season tour.

But it remains to be seen if Tottenham can sell Son, who is now 33 years old, for huge amounts to a side in the MLS.

English club want to sign Tottenham record-breaker on a permanent transfer

English club want to sign Tottenham record-breaker on a permanent transfer - Spurs Web
Description

Millwall are now eyeing a permanent deal for one Tottenham youngster, with the Championship side keen to strengthen ahead of the new season.

The 25/26 season is set to begin in a little under a month, and Tottenham Hotspur are still working to get their squad together ahead of their opening clash against Burnley.

Tottenham have already completed a few signings, including Mohammed Kudus, Kota Takai, Mathys Tel and Kevin Danso, with a total outlay of £110.5 million.

Still, Spurs are reported to be on the lookout for more additions to their squad, particularly in midfield, as Thomas Frank looks to improve his options and bolster the depth available to him.

Millwall target Tottenham midfielder Alfie Devine

While incomings have been slow in the past few weeks, outgoings have taken centre stage. Josh Keeley has been sold to Luton Town, and Ashley Philips has joined Stoke City on loan.

Now, fresh reports from the Mirror state that another Tottenham player has caught the eye of a club in the lower divisions of English football.

It is understood that Tottenham midfielder Alfie Devine is now a target for Millwall, who are actively pursuing more additions to their squad ahead of the upcoming campaign.

MORE SPURS STORIES

Devine, who progressed through the Tottenham academy and has featured twice for the senior team, scoring one goal, spent last season on loan in Belgium with Westerlo.

The midfielder became Tottenham’s youngest-ever goalscorer at 16 years and five months when he netted against Marine in the FA Cup in January 2021.

Devine could benefit from regular minutes at Millwall

The 20-year-old enjoyed a solid spell in Belgium, featuring 32 times in all competitions, scoring six goals and providing one assist.

The youngster has also featured for Tottenham since returning from loan, as Frank handed him some much-needed minutes in the pre-season friendly against Reading, where he played the opening 45 minutes.

Tottenham are reported to be open to loaning out some of their youngsters this summer, and it remains to be seen whether Devine will be one of those on the list.

With Millwall in the Championship, it certainly looks like a positive step up for the young midfielder, but with the Lions proposing a permanent transfer, Spurs have a decision to make.

Latest Tottenham update on Joao Palhinha may damped spirits in number six search - Spurs Web
Description

Florian Plettenberg has revealed how advanced Tottenham’s interest in Joao Palhinha is at the moment and what Bayern Munich’s stance on the experienced midfielder is.

While a number of outlets are now reporting that Tottenham are pushing ahead with a move for Joao Palhinha, a move for the Portuguese international is not expected to be straightforward for the Lilywhites.

This is because, according to some sources, Palhinha would prefer to remain at Allianz Arena and fight for his place.

This is despite the fact that he has not been given any assurances by Vincent Kompany of getting regular game time after warming the bench for much of last season.

According to a recent update by TBR Football, Thomas Frank feels that Palhinha would be the ideal fit for his midfield, but the North Londoners have not made up their mind about a move for the player.

Tottenham’s interest in Joao Palhinha is not concrete

Sky Sports Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg has now taken to social media to reveal that Tottenham Hotspur indeed have their eye on the 30-year-old.

However, he makes it clear that the Premier League side are only monitoring his situation and have not made a concrete approach for the former Fulham man so far.

MORE SPURS STORIES

He adds that the Portugal international is aware of Spurs’ interest, and Bayern are open to selling Palhinha if a suitable offer arrives.

Plettenberg wrote: ‘Tottenham Hotspur are monitoring Joao Palhinha’s situation. It is not concrete at this stage, but there is interest. Palhinha’s camp has been informed. Bayern are open to talks should suitable offers arrive for the 30-year-old.’

Tottenham have one priority before making an offer for Palhinha

If Frank is keen on landing Palhinha and if Bayern are open to selling him, then the obvious question is why Spurs have not made an approach yet.

That was answered earlier this week by Alasdair Gold, who revealed that Tottenham first want to sell one of their midfielders before making an offer for Palhinha.

Tottenham handed chance to sign £43m forward they really wanted in January

Tottenham handed chance to sign £43m forward they really wanted in January - Spurs Web
Description

A striker who has been on Tottenham’s radar for a long time is now back in the market, but the Lilywhites face competition from two other Premier League clubs for the player.

While Spurs secured Mathys Tel on an initial loan deal in January before making the deal for the Frenchman permanent in the summer, he was not the first option that the Lilywhites went for in the last transfer window.

It was widely reported that Spurs tried until the very last moment to convince Randal Kolo Muani to come to N17 in January, but the Frenchman chose to join Juventus on loan instead.

It was reported last month that Tottenham are ready to pounce on Kolo Muani this summer if Juve are not able to tie up a permanent deal for him, and the North Londoners have now seemingly been handed the chance to do just that.

Journalist Graeme Bailey has now revealed that the 26-year-old’s move to Turin has stalled as the Bianconeri have not been able to reach an agreement with Paris Saint-Germain.

As a result, the France international has now been offered to Tottenham Hotspur by the Parisians, but Newcastle and Man United are also keen on signing the striker.

Bailey told TBR Football: “Kolo Muani’s move to Juventus has stalled. They want him back, but they want a loan with an option. PSG are not keen, and they believe there are other clubs willing to take him on better terms.

MORE SPURS STORIES

“Kolo Muani has enjoyed life in Turin, but we are told that he remains keen on England – he was very close to joining Tottenham in January.

“Spurs are one of those contacted again, but so have the likes of Manchester United and Newcastle, both of whom are obviously in the market for new forwards.

“He is suddenly a name who is possibly back on the market, and he is intriguing to these Premier League clubs. He is still seen as a huge talent.”

How much would Kolo Muani cost?

According to the update from TBR Football, PSG are willing to sell the centre-forward for €50m (£43.3m) after Luis Enrique deemed him surplus to requirements.

The report says that the Ligue 1 giants would also be willing to loan out Kolo Munai for a loan fee of €5m (£4.3m) and an obligation to buy for €45m (£39m).
